“Working with Dr. Fourman and Dr. Lo at the Metabolism Unit has solidified my desire to pursue a career in medicine. I have loved working extensively on my research studies and pursuing my own independent analyses. In addition to research, this job has provided me with extensive clinical experience. Dr. Fourman and Dr. Lo always take time out of their very busy days to teach me about research, science, medicine, and what it is like to be a doctor. Their support during my medical school application process was invaluable. ”
