Siwaar Abouhala
MD Student with Scholarly Concentration in Biomedical Ethics & Medical Humanities / Surgery, expected graduation Winter 2030
Haas Graduate CELC, Haas Center for Public ServiceBioSiwaar Abouhala [pronounced: Sea-waar Ah-bu-ha-la] (she/her) is an incoming first-year medical student, a Knight-Hennessy Scholar, and a Leadership in Health Disparities (LHDP) researcher at Stanford Medicine. Siwaar is a health equity researcher and leader, with interests in community-engaged methods, maternal and child health, minoritized health disparities, and implementation science.
She graduated summa cum laude from Tufts University in May 2023 with triple majors in community health (highest thesis honors), biology, and Arabic language and cultural studies. There, she founded MARCH: Maternal Advocacy and Research for Community Health, the largest undergraduate student-run maternal health organization in the United States, as well as the Arab Maternal Health in Ohio Study, the first qualitative maternal health assessment among Arab American mothers.
After graduation, Siwaar conducted extensive biomedical and public health research to further health equity, including at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard [Founder of Project MENA PEDIGREE: Middle Eastern or North African Progressing Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion in Genetic Research, Education, and Empowerment], Tufts Medicine [Founder of Project INSPIRE: Improving New Somerville Parent and Infant Resiliency and Engagement], the Arab American Health Network Alliance (AAHNA), and the Rare Disease Diversity Coalition (RDDC).
Siwaar plans on training as a physician-advocate at Stanford, with research and health innovation serving as a necessary bridge between both roles.

Stanford Student Employee-3, Psychology
Undergraduate, PsychologyBioThe contexts that bring societies together govern our interactions in ways that are as tragic as they are beautiful. My dedication to understanding the social experience is grounded not only in a love for academia, but in compassion: what we know only matters as much as our capacity to use it to make a difference in the lives of others. I believe that this is remarkably evident in Psychology, Data Science and Social Systems, and Public Policy. By studying the gaps between disciplines, I hope to better understand the persistent psychological impact of policy initiatives and systemic prejudices in the real world. This passion has informed the research I have pursued with the SPARQ Lab at Stanford and the Social Context and Inequity Lab at the University of Denver, as well as my community-oriented work with the Haas Center for Public Service as the Frosh Service Liaison Coordinator, a fellow with Leadership, Organizing, and Action, and a fellow for Matriculate.
