Psychiatry - Weight gain on medication with antidepressants (Gewichtstoename bij medicatie met antidepressiva)

Jet Westerink, jet.westerink@hotmail.com 
During my internship I was trained to talk with patients suffering from a depression. I used questionnaires and I measured the biometrics. This was for a research which is still running at the UMC. For my own research, I received another dataset, which I could use for my analyses. I wrote my research from this data set.

Learned techniques 
I had a lot of responsibilities. I made appointments with patients and after some time, I had a lot of contact patients without extra guidance. I didn’t spent my time at a lab, but had the possibility to join a research where a lot of different departments worked together.

Tips 
Don’t look at the list with possible departments, they are occupied very soon. Send emails directly to the department and don’t forget about the more unknown departments.
