Garrison Allen, third-year Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine student, recently shared his academic journey: from chemical engineering as an undergraduate, to U.S. Food and Drug Administration research in a postbaccalaureate fellowship, to medical school - and now a unique combination of all that know-how to innovate for the future.

At 26, Grace Basralian, a medical student at Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine, saw a spine surgeon do something she was not expecting.
