Description

Dr. Ghasemi shares her personal and professional journey—from her upbringing in Iran and the support of her family in pursuing medicine, to adapting to a new culture and navigating the challenges of starting over in the US. She discusses her transition from clinical practice to research, the struggles of being an immigrant professional, and the importance of adaptability and resilience.

As a physician, Dr. Ghasemi reflects on the emotional challenge of shifting from patient care to research, noting that “the satisfaction that you feel right after helping a patient in clinical work isn’t present in research.” Yet, her passion for making a broader impact through research continues to drive her forward.

In this special episode, we also reflect on the GROklahoma Podcast itself, exploring how it has fostered connections, amplified voices, and highlighted the incredible work being done in Oklahoma’s healthcare and research sectors. Dr. Ghasemi offers her feedback on the podcast and shares valuable advice for those considering similar career transitions.
