After the first year of medical school, many students spend their summers doing research and exploring their interests but few students get to participate in a program as unique as our guest on this episode. Sarah Ditelberg is a second-year medical student at Stritch interested in contributing to the field of aerospace medicine. She received her Bachelors of Science in biology from UMass Amherst in 2020, and took two gap years conducting COVID research and working in an orthopedics clinic before starting medical school. During her first year at Stritch, she came across spaceflight associated neuro-ocular syndrome (SANS), which led her to apply for a NASA internship, combining her interests in both space and medicine.
