Cell Press Internship
From Sept. - Dec. 2022, I was the graduate student intern for the communications department at Cell Press. This massive publishing agent for over 50 scientific journals, is a branch of the Elsevier company. I worked on Press Releases for upcoming articles and created a new communications workflow between journal editors and the communications team. Below are my published press releases!
