Hello!
My name is Dahlia Moskowitz and I’m a first-year student from Beachwood, Ohio. I’m following a Neuroscience track and I hope to attend dental school in the near future.
Ever since I was young, I’ve had a great thirst for knowledge and helping others. I began volunteering consistently in middle school with Friendship Circle, an organization focused on supporting children with special needs. They quickly became a huge part of my life and still are, as I continue to volunteer with them today. In fact, my volunteer work with them is a large reason why I chose to study the field of neuroscience. Volunteering with children who are not neurotypical made me appreciate the elaborate communication system we call the human nervous system. It is as a neuroscientist that I will have the ability to research and answer questions that have been asked for years. During my time in high school, I decided to begin contributing to the research field and joined a lab at Case Western Reserve University. My work to understand esophageal adenocarcinoma has solidified my interest in the research process and I look forward to more research experience here!
Currently, at Ohio State University, I am involved with the OSU farm, Sierra Club, and MSF (Doctors Without Borders)! I also love weight lifting and have been super active ever since I was young. Lately, I’ve been getting more involved with other sports and meditative practices. I’m super excited to be here, exploring and learning in the city of Columbus. I’m ready for my next four years of growth!
Feel free to contact me with questions!
