Medical Student
Loyola University Stritch School of Medicine
My name is Dr. Erica Power, PhD and I am just about to begin my third year of medical school at Loyola Stritch School of Medicine. Prior to medical school I received my PhD under the mentorship of Dr. David Daniels MD, PhD at the Mayo Clinic is Rochester, MN. My PhD work was focused on direct drug delivery to diffuse midline gliomas. My professional interests remain in pediatric neuro-oncology as I pursue my medical degree and my long term plan is to train as a pediatric neuro-oncologist. My career goals as a physician-scientist include a balanced practice with protected research time for conducting clinical trials for children with brain tumors, workly closely with a multidisciplinary team to provide the best care and innovative treatment options to these children.
