“My MBA AI internship at Vertex empowered me to use my strategic mindset as well as my technical knowledge to advance the impact of data science. I am thankful for the opportunities I had to brainstorm use cases for AI with Vertexians across the company, to learn from industry experts focused on AI in healthcare and to get exposed to working at a company that values innovation and a collaborative culture before joining full-time!"
