How can I build a career in medicine that combines scientific research and patient empathy, especially for individuals living with chronic illnesses?
My life hasn’t followed a straight line, but every challenge has shaped who I am and what I stand for. Losing my father to gun violence and living with Crohn’s disease taught me resilience early on. Instead of letting those experiences define my limits, I used them to define my purpose and deepen my empathy for others.

How do I get involved in clinical research as an undergraduate?
I think I've found my dream job– maybe. For the past while I've been fixated on the role of a clinical research associate. This position appeals to me for a variety of reasons, such as the strong requirement for travel (which I love). The main issue is that I feel underprepared and don't know as much as I would like to about the clinical research community– most online CRA personalities I've found fixate more on the lifestyle aspect rather than the work itself. I am currently a first-year undergraduate pursuing a degree in biology, and would greatly appreciate any resources or suggested opportunities to gain a better understanding of this field. I know there are a variety of roles within clinical research, so I would also appreciate if anyone can suggest any similar jobs I might look into. Thank you!
