The MedBiquitous Blog

Welcome to the MedBiquitous Team: Ben Hsu

I’m originally from Norman, Oklahoma and have been a student at the University of Michigan since 2015. I graduated with my bachelor’s in Biopsychology and a minor in Music in 2019. I’m currently a master’s student in the Health Informatics joint degree program at U-M’s School of Information. I’m really thrilled to be working with Johmarx and Jeff to support the mission of MedBiquitous and the AAMC this summer.
