Hey #MedTwitter I'm Stephanie! I'm an MS4 at #OHSUSOM applying into #GenSurgMatch2023. I am currently interested in trauma, plastics, rural/global health, and mentorship. I'm a scuba diver, dog mom, and outdoor enthusiast! I'd love to connect and learn about your program!

I got to be a part of something really special last night - telementoring #EOU pre-med students with @AldenEWyland and Ileisa Oleson! Improving rural healthcare in Oregon by recruiting rurally to #OHSUSOM. #NEOAHEC #ruralhealth #Mentoring

Such a great experience with the hope to connect more rural students to #OHSUSOM. We need more Eastern Oregon student representation in medicine! #NEOAHEC

Mental health and physical health are in a complex interplay of cause and effect. It’s a shame we as a society, as well as in medicine, value one over the other.
People were pretty much unanimously okay with #SimoneBiles leaving the Olympics when they thought it was for physical health. Learning it was for mental health has been polarizing. As a physician, let me be very clear. Mental health can be just as lethal as physical health.
This is incredible. As a student, I didn’t think I had the platform to improve the educational environment for myself and my peers, but I’m happy to say that we can. Find a mentor that believes in you and your goals and work hard toward the change! Thanks @VNikolian!
Suturing/knot-tying #telecoaching for our core-clerkship students. Today worked with our off-site students, providing skills training from the convenience of their homes. Project supported by a generous award from @InventOregon secured by superstars @samhan_ashraf @SA_OConnor!

Can’t believe I have such a great team to work with at STAR Lab where I can collaborate in bringing augmented reality to surgical training for @OHSUsurgery interns and @OHSUSOM students. Excited to implement this with @samhan_ashraf and @VNikolian! #InventOR
Proud of @samhan_ashraf & @SA_OConnor for presenting our concept of augmented reality based education. Already doing it and excited to provide this mechanism of training for @OHSUsurgery interns & @OHSUSOM students on the surgery clerkship! #telepresence #STATCollaborative

Having a great mentor who shares opportunities to collaborate and pushes me toward my goals is amazing! Thanks @VNikolian!
Excited to have @samhan_ashraf and @SA_OConnor represent our team at @InventOregon! They have been working on developing an augmented reality based technical skills training platform for our students and residents. #telesurgery @OHSUSOM @OHSUsurgery #STARLab

Thanks @VNikolian for all your support. I am honored to represent STAR Lab at 2021 OHSU Research Week and work with such an incredible team here at OHSU. Looking forward to watching @samhan_ashraf present tomorrow! @OHSUSOM @OHSUsurgery
Awesome presentation by @SA_OConnor at @OHSUNews Research Week! At-home drain removal for our patients has liberalized many of them from low-yield encounters at the medical center. Looking forward to expanding the program. #OHSUHernia @OrensteinSean @OHSUsurgery
