Why did you choose WashU for fellowship?

I am looking forward to getting to deep dive into the topics I’m passionate about, and building relationships in the department!

Be transparent about your specific career goals and what you are looking for- the right program will train you well and help you become the doctor you want to be!

What are your career goals?
I hope to gain skills as a physician-researcher and as a maternal health advocate.
