Turning the final page of the fall semester!

I had the opportunity to be a part of the New Orleans Holiday Toy Giveaway this past week. We helped distribute toys to children ages 4-12 as part of the 2023 Neighborhood Cares Initiative Holiday Toy Giveaway. I helped the kids select toys that sparked their interest, ensuring each received a gift tailored to bring them joy. The event showcased a community coming together to make a difference in the lives of those who need it most during the holiday season. It ignited the holiday spirit that I will soon spend with my family. I find myself grateful for the opportunity to have played a part in this transformative experience :)

As the semester comes to an end, we just completed the GI/Neoplasia module. Learning about different drug classes and how they attack cancer cells and their receptors was incredibly interesting and allowed me to wrap my head around the whole disease itself. Reflecting on my fall semester journey, I'm genuinely grateful for the depth of learning and the diverse insights gained. I am excited to see what the spring semester has in store for me and to embark on the next steps in my medical career. I had no idea I would enjoy learning about pharmacokinetics the way I do before starting this program but I am privileged I can be a part of such a community
