Internship at FHTS was an amazing and eye-opening experience for me as it introduced me to the practical use of technology linked with Nutrition.
This internship made me aware of various m-health applications available on app store and the thought process involved in making them.
I found it fascinating to learn about this new branch of nutrition i.e. nutrition informatics which also helped me to learn about data collection and its analysis.
Data analysis and interpreting skills were the most important skills I have learned.
I came across research articles on the public health blog post and it provoked my thinking process. It motivated me to see things as a researcher and find practical solutions for them.
This internship also polished my skills needed for teamwork and time management.
