Five undergraduate students have been awarded summer internships under a new program sponsored by The Gatorade Co. The internships are intended to broaden the students' experience in business, industrial or research laboratory settings either at Yale; at The Gatorade Co. facilities in Chicago or Barrington, Illinois; or in other comparable research laboratory, industrial, public service or business settings.
The students who were awarded 1998 internships are:
Lauge Sokol-Hessnerm, a sophomore majoring in biology, who will work at the University of Massachusetts on muscle damage and micronutrients;
Alexa Romberg, a junior and a molecular biophysics and biochemistry major, who will work at the Yale-affiliated John B. Pierce Laboratory;
Guillem Gonzalez-Lomas, a junior majoring in biomedical engineering, who will also work at Pierce Lab;
Laura Long, a junior majoring in biology, who will be working at the Gatorade facility in Barrington, Illinois; and
E. Alex Hoffman, a sophomore majoring in history, who will work in marketing at the Gatorade facility in Chicago, Illinois.
The Gatorade Student Internship Program will support up to seven Yale College students each summer for the next three years with stipends of $5,000 each for eight weeks.
