Martina Chirra

Personal Statement
Ars longa, vita brevis. Art is long, life is short. I have never found a sentence more appropriate to describe what the art of medicine represents for me—a lifelong process of active learning that affords me a small window of opportunity to affect the lives of my patients and their families. My career goal is to work as an academic oncologist in the USA, improving cancer knowledge and management. I genuinely believe that the University of Cincinnati is the best place to acquire all the skills I need to become a proficient physician and move one step closer to my career goal.
 
Why I Chose Cincinnati
High-quality care and training, science, promotion of health, diversity, and inclusion—all in a single environment.
