U of M COVID-19 Clinical Trial Expands Participant Enrollment Opportunities

For Women’s History Month, we are highlighting the extraordinary work of some of our Medical School staff, faculty-physicians and researchers who are advancing medicine through their passion for research, clinical care and training of the next generation of healthcare leaders.

Being a physician is one of the most rewarding, challenging, noble professions you could have chosen. Remember today that regardless if you receive the match you want, don’t receive the one you want, or don’t match at all, you have a valuable role to play in our world going forward.

Michelle Grafelman, a fourth-year medical student, caught a bug for research at an early age that inspired her to pursue medicine. Today, she matched at the University of Washington in pediatrics.

The team hopes it will accelerate biomedical research and offer a new protocol for studying the vulnerability of the model and a new cardiovascular phenotype.
