MIA BISCARDI

Committed aspiring physician with a compassionate approach to patient care and a dedication to serving the underserved. During undergraduate studies, I balanced academics with extensive extracurricular involvement, including a role as a Medical Assistant. Research experience in neurodegenerative diseases, particularly focusing on frontotemporal disorders using Drosophila models, has also honed skills in molecular analysis and behavioral studies. My hands-on research, combined with a deep commitment to community service and my patients, has equipped me with a unique blend of scientific knowledge and empathetic patient care, underscoring my readiness to pursue a meaningful career in medicine.

Cultivating an early passion for art and painting, I've developed a keen sensitivity and creative outlook, vital for the medical field. In high school, I engaged deeply in art, honing my high attention to detail into drawings, paintings and photography. Although college initially limited my artistic pursuits, when I declared a minor in English, creative writing reignited my passion for art. My studies in Copenhagen also uniquely integrated this passion for the creative arts with my clinical education. The blend of artistic expression through writing and medical exploration greatly enriched my perspective, fostering a merger of artistic empathy with medical wisdom. This combination of art and medicine has profoundly influenced my patient care approach, equipping me to infuse compassion and humanism into the medical field.
