Foundation Bids Farewell to Summer Intern
Summer intern Rachel Sand, Marquette University physical therapy student, was a huge asset to the Foundation this year. Throughout her 12-week internship period, Rachel assisted Foundation staff with countless projects including preparation for APTA's Annual Conference & Exposition in Salt Lake City, Utah; preparing for the 2013–2014 Miami–Marquette Challenge; and maintaining our database of Foundation-funded researchers. The Foundation wishes Rachel the best of luck with her future physical therapy studies.
