I am Alyssa Chiev, a sophomore pre-med biology major at the University of Texas at Dallas. I am heavily involved in research with the Gassensmith lab and I am a newsletter writer for the American Medical Women’s Association at UTD. My interest in aerospace medicine began as of recently, I knew I have always wanted to play a role in humanity’s journey into space, but I did not see how I could do that until I stumbled upon the Aerospace Medical Association and Dr. Ann Tsung. Both have inspired me to pursue this career path. For this episode, I will be asking some common questions generated from me and my peers to gain further insight into this subspecialty.
