Why I Chose Vanderbilt: The academic community at VUMC is incredibly collaborative and supportive. I was looking for a fellowship with strong leadership and mentorship, as well as the flexibility to pursue my passions for global health education and advocacy for vulnerable populations. Vanderbilt feels like the perfect fit. And it doesn't hurt that we're in such a lively, fun city!
