This was her first exposure to dedicated nutrition training. She emphasizes the importance of nutrition as it affects every discipline in every area of medicine.

A member of the Physician Engagement Committee, Dr. Austin shares how her involvement with ASPEN has opened up career opportunities. She stresses the importance of mentorship and peer support in nutrition, urging clinicians interested in nutrition to actively participate in the community to advance their careers.
