Mai Ly Tran Burke
Masters Student in Human Genetics and Genetic Counseling, admitted Autumn 2024
BioI am Mai Ly Burke, a Master's student in Human Genetics and Genetic Counseling. Having grown up in Vietnam—a country that grapples with many health challenges—my work is fueled by a genuine passion for giving back to my community. I was inspired to enter the genetic counseling field by my volunteer work supporting children with cancer in public hospitals in Vietnam, where I saw the urgent need for improved access to healthcare. My goal is to facilitate the introduction of the genetic counseling field to Vietnam, where there is a stark shortage of genetic experts, to improve health outcomes in my community.
Please feel free to reach out to connect! I always want to meet others who share my passion for genetics, global health, and health equity.
