ACADEMICS: Eliscar & Mack-Harris Intern at Nephron

Tyler Mack-Harris and Johnaida Eliscar, CAT Seniors, were able to participate in an internship at Nephron Pharmaceuticals.  Nephron ​Pharmaceuticals ​is ​a ​generic respiratory ​medication ​manufacturer ​that is ​based ​right ​here ​in ​Columbia, ​South Carolina.  ​The ​company ​started ​in ​1992 ​in Orlando, ​FL, ​and ​made ​the ​decision ​to relocate ​to ​Columbia ​last ​year.  ​They ​specialize ​in ​blow-fill-seal ​manufacturing ​and ​​have distributed ​over ​1 ​billion ​doses ​doses ​of ​respiratory ​medication ​over ​the ​last ​5 ​years. 

Nephron is very involved in our community and has created an extensive internship program where our students are immersed as a new hire and participate in all new hire training.  "Boot Camp", as the training is known, is an intensive introduction to the company's different departments - from HR to research to robotics.  Ridge View and the CAT Program would like to thank you Aubrey Dooley and Brian Platt for another incredible experience for our students.  Both Tyler and Johnaida said they learned so much and would love to do it again!
