About Michelle Zhang
Grew up in Edison, NJ. I currently attend Rocky Vista University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Ivins, Utah. I previously attended Cornell University, where I saw that medicine as a discipline stretched far beyond merely the natural sciences. At Cornell, I majored in Policy Analysis and Management to learn about the economics of health and healthcare. I was captivated by public health prevention struggles, patient information asymmetry in finding a physician and paying for services, and the government’s attempt at regulation by predicting the uncertainties of patient outcomes and financial costs.
​
My past healthcare related experiences include analyzing patient metabolomics to identify biomarkers for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, evaluating and improving a parenting workshop in NYC, looking at deal structures and analyst coverages of biopharma alliances, and conducting pharmaceutical sales analysis.
