Chemistry intern inspired by Argonne’s real-world science
Argonne National Laboratoryetmarie Matos Vazquez came to the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory seeking a more in-depth understanding of science beyond what her university could provide. Almost as soon as she stumbled upon a DOE website about internship opportunities, she knew that DOE’s laboratory system, and Argonne specifically, had exactly what she needed.Currently, she is workingon a projectthat offers the potential toimprove the aspect resolution of a wide array of microscopes.Vazquez’s internship was sponsored by the Minority Serving Institutions Partnership Program, within the DOE’s Office of Environmental Management.
