Mitacs Globalink provided me a unique experience, where I could combine professional experience in a great research group at Carleton University with knowledge of a new country, new cultures and people from different countries. I reached the professional and personal improvement that I hoped for when I applied. — Bruna Rodrigues, Globalink Research Intern, Carleton University
