VT Sobrado Lab-Costa Rica Tech International Collaboration
Our laboratory has established an Internship Program with the Costa Rican Institute of Technology (Costa Rica Tech) in the areas of biotechnology, biochemistry, and molecular biology. Through this program, students from Costa Rica Tech will have the opportunity to get training at state-of-the-art research facilities in Virginia Tech. Participants in this program will spend 3 to 6 months at the Sobrado laboratory learning the latest techniques in the field of protein biochemistry. The results from their research at VT will be incorporated into their thesis projects, as part of the degree requirements in the Biotechnology Engineering program at Costa Rica Tech.
