Janan Muhammad is a senior from Baltimore Maryland who attends Bowie State University

majoring in biology with a concentration in pre-medical sciences. Janan’s passion for science

and medicine has moved her to pursue a career in pediatric neurology. In addition to the

hands-on perspective. Janan maintains a deep devotion to neurological sciences, which fuels

her ambition to become a medical professional; she looks forward to improving healthcare

access for communities like the one where she grew up in Baltimore and achieving real impact

in healthcare equity.
