🌟 SAMI I. NASSAR: A DEDICATED JOURNEY IN MEDICINE AND RESEARCH

EARLY ACADEMIC PURSUITS 🎓

Sami I. Nassar began his academic journey at Columbia University, where he majored in Neuroscience and Behavior, graduating Cum Laude in 2019 with an impressive GPA of 3.94/4.00. His academic excellence earned him a place in the Psi Chi International Honor Society in Psychology for his outstanding achievements. This strong foundation in neuroscience laid the groundwork for his future medical career. He is currently pursuing his MD at Wayne State University, School of Medicine, where he is on track to graduate in June 2024, having achieved a Step 2 Score of 258—a testament to his dedication to medical excellence.

PROFESSIONAL ENDEAVORS 👨‍⚕️

Throughout his career, Nassar has actively engaged in clinical and research positions across prestigious institutions. His experience as a Research Fellow at the Medical University of South Carolina since 2024 has enabled him to delve into otolaryngological topics, including vertiginous disorders and suicide risk in head and neck cancer patients. At the Henry Ford Health System and Karmanos Cancer Institute, he contributed to significant research on molecular biomarkers and substance use among cancer patients, helping to push the boundaries of cancer research and patient care. His earlier roles, including work at Generation Next Fertility and Columbia University, demonstrate his practical skills in clinical and laboratory settings, offering a holistic approach to patient care and research. These roles also gave him experience in collaborating with medical professionals and managing clinical trials, which have been integral to his development as a medical researcher.

CONTRIBUTIONS AND RESEARCH FOCUS ON CANCER GENETICS AND GENOMICS 🔬

Nassar’s research has focused heavily on otolaryngology, head and neck cancer, and HPV-related carcinomas. His work on identifying molecular biomarkers and risk factors in cancer patients, such as those for suicide and substance use, has been groundbreaking. His research not only seeks to understand the molecular foundations of cancer but also aims to improve the quality of life for cancer patients. His investigations into tinnitus and vertiginous disorders add further depth to his research portfolio, contributing to patient outcomes in the field of ear, nose, and throat (ENT) medicine.
