Pilar Martin-Duque is writing a reference letter for Carolina Allende. She describes meeting Carolina as an undergraduate student in the summer of 2013, where Carolina was a very good student who was responsible, educated, and kind. Carolina then worked in Pilar's lab for 2 months, where she demonstrated that she is a hard worker, smart, careful in the lab, and pleasant to work with. Pilar strongly recommends Carolina for any position or task.
