During this program, I studied the inner workings of each body system and medical specialty; "all of medical school in two weeks" as they called it. By the end of the program, I’d learned how to stabilize a patient pre-hospital through the use of advanced first aid and taking patient history, including leading a group of fellow interns to give a presentation of gastrointestinal illnesses and disorders in order to diagnose patients. I also got to hear lectures from doctors on the breaking edge of medical research at Stanford. During the internship, I met Dr. Gordon Li, whose lecture on the day in the life of a neurosurgeon confirmed my desire to pursue a career in neurosurgical oncology.
