Antonia Schonwald, M.S., Looks Ahead to a Career Bridging Neuroscience Research and Clinical Medicine

A Chance Introduction to Neuroscience Set the Class of 2026 M.D.-Ph.D. Candidate on a Trajectory of Research, Medicine, and Service

An unexpected introductory course in neuroscience first sparked Antonia Schonwald’s, M.S., M.D.-Ph.D. Class of 2026, interest in pursuing a Ph.D. That initial fascination led her to basic science research exploring these mechanisms, where she developed a strong appreciation for discovery at the bench, while also recognizing a desire for work that remained closely tied to patients and clinical impact. As graduation nears, she is honored to serve as the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences student commencement speaker, an opportunity she views as a reflection of the community that shaped her training and the mentors and peers who supported her along the way.
