This year’s interns are Khaloud al-Turki, a sociology major from Qatar University; Naira al-Thani, a biology graduate from Qatar University; Moza al-Kuwari, a biomedical science graduate from Qatar University and healthcare management  graduate from the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland; and Njoud al-Naama, a biology graduate from Cornell University.
The programme offers a solid grounding in the basic skills to work in the research field, and also gives the interns the opportunity to contribute to real research projects being conducted at WCM-Q.
