Meet Brian

“Meeting both deans from both Australia and New Orleans helped me envision what it would be like to be a global leader in medicine. I am now living the experience and making a difference at a global level. Being able to hear what opportunities and exciting adventures I would have helped me to decide to pursue this program and I did not regret it one bit. It is about the journey, not just the end goal, and that’s what UQ-Ochsner offered me.”
