About Me

About Me

Chase Byington studied Neuroscience at Ohio State on the pre-med track, and he was a member of the Health Science Scholars. His interests fall upon not only the anatomy of the human brain, but the psychology of it too. He wants to know both how and why the human brain works the way it does. He wants to work to understand human suffering so he can better help to mitigate its negative effects, because we can’t always (and sometimes shouldn’t) avoid painful experiences, but we can work to understand their effects on our psyche. And in that process, we can learn from our pain and use it to help us grow. Chase thinks that, as a doctor, being emotionally supportive and guiding is just as important as a medical diagnosis. When not in class, he enjoys playing piano, reading, and writing poetry. If you have any questions to ask Chase, feel free to contact him.
