Back at Brown for her 25th Reunion, Maitri Patel ’96 MD’00 took time to reflect on how her experience at The Warren Alpert Medical School shaped her path in medicine.
“Brown taught me how to think, how to ask questions, and how to appreciate facts and opinions in the world,” she says. “Medicine is not an easy path, though it is straightforward. Students should have resources, access, and opportunities to become the best doctors and human beings they can be.”

We once thought DNA held all the answers, but RNA may hold the key to neurodegenerative diseases like ALS. With only ~5% of RNAs understood, researchers like Juan Alfonzo, Professor of Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, and Biochemistry at Brown, are working to decode the rest. This ALS Awareness Month, we spotlight RNA research at Brown and the promise it holds for the future of patients suffering from the disease.
“The full story happens at the RNA level.”
