- Tejasav Sehrawat, MD - FMG to PSTPDr. Tejasav Sehrawat is a post doctoral fellow at Mayo who recently matched at the Yale internal medicine PSTP for gastroenterology. Dr. Sehrawat is a first generation physician who went to medical school in Northern India – where he found a passion for both medicine and science despite the lack of a formal physician-scientist pathway. He then made his way to the NIH and from there to the Mayo Clinic as a post-doc for Dr. Vijay Shah. He will begin his intern year at Yale this summer. Today, Dr. Sehrawat shares his story of finding science and medicine, and his advice for overcoming the hurdles of entry into the US medical training system and PSTP as a foreign medical grad.

He also serves as Director of the Liver Imaging Research Program, where he leads an NIH-funded effort to develop novel quantitative imaging methods to assess liver disease. In today’s episode, Dr. Reeder discusses his journey through scientific discovery and application which first began as an engineer outside of medicine (in non-invasive testing) and has since led to a prolific career as a physician-scientist and leader within academic medicine. In addition to talking about his own clinical and research interests, Dr. Reeder also discusses the outlook for aspiring radiologists in today’s constantly evolving era.

52 min - Ira Schwartz, MD - Growing Up Quickly
Dr. Ira Schwartz is a Professor of Pediatrics, An Associate Dean of medical education and student affairs, and the Director of admissions at Emory University School of Medicine. Dr. Schwartz earned his bachelor’s degree from Union College, his MD from Chicago medical school, did his residency in pediatrics at Children’s Memorial Hospital at Northwestern University medical center, and then complete a fellowship in infectious diseases at the University of Chicago. Somewhere in there he spent a year as part of the international rescue committee in Thailand and 3 years as a member of the epidemic intelligence service in the division of parasitic diseases at the CDC. I have been wanting to have this conversation with Dr. Schwartz for a long time, partly because his career path demonstrates the opportunity for diverse experience in academic medicine, and partly because of his role as the director of admissions. His task, for many years, has been to try to put together a cohesive class of budding physicians and distill down tens of thousands of applications into roughly 150 accepted applicants. Today we discuss his process, and the process of the admissions committee at large, for doing so, while exploring his own unique journey in medicine and how it has shaped his perspective on medicine and those who practice it.
