Amazing Company, Amazing Mission - Health Policy Intern AdMeTech Employee Review

I greatly enjoy working at AdMeTech. We are a relatively small team, which means you get lots of hands on experience and get to communicate and learn from our President and managers daily. As someone starting medical school this year, AdMeTech has been an amazing opportunity to learn from world renowned physicians who are leading their respective fields, and learn about advocacy work with state government. I have learned and grown as an employee here, and it has been both an excellent full time (post undergraduate) and part time (during my undergraduate time) job!

I wouldn't say these are "cons," but this job requires a delicate eye and sharp organization skills!

As a paid intern at AdMeTech Foundation, I am involved in research, education, and advocacy efforts related to the organization's groundbreaking advancements in prostate cancer. Daily tasks usually include preparing for AdMeTech's yearly Global Summit through communications with participating physicians and working on social media posts, newsletters, and the scientific program to name a few of the diverse amount of tasks. Coming into this position, I had no prior knowledge about cancer. However, as a pre-medical student, I had the opportunity to study literature and research on the current clinical trials and medical advancements of prostate cancer from presentations at the Summit. Through my presentations and engaging and valuable conversations with the president and CEO of AdMeTech, Dr. Shtern, I have learned an incredible amount of knowledge relating to the treatment and management of prostate cancer. Specifically, I have learned differing perspectives and opinions on the intersection of molecular, genetic, and imaging diagnostics which has given me a strong foundation of the complexities of scientific research. Every employee at AdMeTech is wonderful to work with and very skilled! I have learned so many technical skills in addition to medicine. Working as a part-time intern during the semester has also been a great experience and very doable with pre-medical studies! I highly recommend working at AdMeTech!

The internship is currently remote, which has its added benefits and drawbacks. However, constant zoom meetings with the team and quick communication responses enhance the virtual working and have not been a problem at all! Further, virtual meetings allow for access to working with physicians worldwide! With the virtual component, there is also room for flexibility with working during the semester part-time.
