Clinical, research, and patient-facing exposure

Supported radiology-adjacent clinical workflows in a hospital environment by analyzing X-ray imaging, recognizing relevant visual patterns, and strengthening familiarity with diagnostic imaging processes. Worked alongside healthcare professionals to review cases and support training and evaluation of medical imaging systems.

• Utilized clinical knowledge and attention to detail while analyzing X-ray imaging in a hospital setting.
• Assisted in identifying key visual patterns and abnormalities in radiographic images.
• Collaborated with healthcare professionals to strengthen diagnostic understanding and imaging workflow awareness.

Conducted molecular biology research involving DNA extraction, PCR, and gel electrophoresis to analyze genetic barcoding in pomegranates. Optimized lab protocols, contributed to phylogenetic modeling, and co-authored a published extraction protocol.

• Performed molecular biology research involving DNA extraction, PCR, and gel electrophoresis focused on pomegranate genetic barcoding.
• Optimized laboratory methods and contributed to building phylogenetic models for reproducible data generation.
• Co-authored a published protocol focused on high molecular weight DNA extraction from pomegranate samples.

Observed patient care workflows and clinical decision-making in dermatology, with exposure to biopsies, minor procedures, and diagnostic discussion.

• Observed clinical evaluation, biopsies, and treatment workflows in a dermatology setting.
• Collaborated with medical students and residents on discussions around diagnosis and treatment approaches.

Provided direct patient support in a hospital setting and gained broad exposure to interdisciplinary care delivery across multiple departments.

• Supported patients through mobility assistance, vital signs, and clinical material preparation.
• Gained exposure to surgical procedures, emergency care, and interdisciplinary hospital workflows.

Selected through a competitive national program for hands-on exposure to clinical practice and healthcare systems.

• Participated in simulations, suturing, and interdisciplinary training focused on patient care and clinical reasoning.
• Engaged in coursework addressing health disparities and healthcare-system dynamics.
