ABOUT ME
My name is Sohan Kosna, a high school senior aspiring to pursue a career in medicine. As both an athlete and a competitive swimmer, I have developed a deep understanding of the importance of physical and mental health, which drives my commitment to supporting young athletes. My academic passion lies in cancer research, where I am particularly focused on studying the potential of oncolytic viruses as innovative treatments for cancer. This blend of athletics and scientific curiosity has inspired me to explore the field of medicine, where I hope to make meaningful contributions to healthcare and the well-being of others, both in the lab and beyond.
