Cannizzaro, as well as in all the apprenticeship activities offered by the university, enhancing surgical outcomes and patient care. Furthermore, because of my growing desire to learn new languages and considering my flexibility to adapt to new contexts, I am properly prepared to attend an internship abroad, intending to make the most of the overall experience.
