Kamran Mirza, Clinical Professor of Pathology at Michigan Medicine, shared a post by Sanam Loghavi, Associate Professor of Pathology at MD Anderson Cancer Center, Medical Director of ECOG-ACRIN Leukemia Bank and Editor in Chief of Image Bank at the American Society of Hematology, adding:
“Sanam Loghavi you are amazing!! you and Zhuoer Xie inspired me to share mine – in July 2005 I lost my residency spot due to a visa delay and wrote almost 1000 emails and only two people replied. Dr. Malik at UIC Pharmacology was one of them. Ultimately, I did a PhD in his lab before residency. Forever grateful to him.”
Quoting Sanam Loghavi‘s post:
“Amazing Zhuoer Xie, Most of us are here today because someone was kind and generous enough to take a chance on us. For me it was Eugene Butcher at Stanford University
… I remember sending this email like it was yesterday… (2007) I sent 100+ emails and he was the only person that answered.”
Earlier Zhuoer (Zoey) Xie, Hematologist at Moffitt Cancer Center, shared a post on X:
“Still remember arriving in the US, calling every number I could find for an observer opportunity. Today I helped an IMG resident shadow at Moffitt Cancer Center – and seeing her hope and energy felt like looking at myself just yesterday. Grateful to pay it forward.”
