Congratulations to Elias Wojahn!
2nd JHNSP Scholar of many to come to attend medical school!
Our Cohort 1 JHNSP Scholar Mr. Elias Wojahn will be heading to the Medical College of Wisconsin in Fall 2022.
Elias’s Bio: My name is Elias Wojahn, I graduated from the University of Minnesota with a degree in Biochemistry in 2021. As part of the initial cohort of students, I spent three years with the Johns Hopkins Neuroscience Scholars Program. I started off researching vestibular dysfunction in the Cullen Lab at Johns Hopkins University and after graduation I researched drug-induced deafness in the Steyger Lab at Creighton University. The mentorship I received and the opportunity to interact with peers who shared not only my interests but also my background was amazing and my skills as a scientist and scholar grew immensely. I’m pleased to share that this fall I will be starting medical school at the Medical College of Wisconsin, class of 2026.
Congratulations to Olivia Morrissey!
1st Scholar of many to come to attend medical school!
Our Cohort 1 JHNSP Scholar Ms. Olivia Morrissey will be heading to the Loyola Stritch School of Medicine in Chicago. She graduated from Fordham University in 2021 with a double major in Integrative Neuroscience and Sociology and a minor in Chemistry. She conducted research at Johns Hopkins in 2019 with Dr. Vikram Chib and in 2020 with Dr. Philip Wong. In her own words, “JHNSP was one of the best undergraduate experiences that I could have hoped for. It not only provided the opportunity to do cutting-edge research at one of the best research institutions in the world but has fostered valuable mentorship, lasting friendships, renewed self-confidence, and professional skills that will be essential in the years to come as a hard of hearing medical professional. I truly could not have asked for a better or more supportive program to explore my intellectual interests.”
Congratulations to our JHNSP Co-Director!
