The Ambassadors Program is helping UF College of Medicine and graduate students build mentorship and communication skills while introducing younger students to the world of cancer research.

“I had to knock on many doors as an undergrad to acquire research exposure and, for me personally, being part of the UF Health Cancer Institute has allowed me to open doors for other students who are also in the shoes I was once in,” said Maria Carolina Hernandez, an ambassador and graduate student in the College of Medicine Graduate Program in Biomedical Sciences Cancer Biology Concentration. “A set of moments that are always incredibly fulfilling is when the students or teachers who are attending our science workshops enter the room with very little knowledge and slowly, I see them grasp the concept of what we’re teaching them. You can see their mind racing, really applying what we’ve taught them in the experiment and asking all sorts of awesome questions.”

“I love doing clinical research because I hope we can bring novel treatments to patients that potentially have fewer side effects, better quality of life and, ultimately, I’m here in hope we find a cure for cancer,” said Brittany Lansford, clinical research manager in the UF Health Cancer Institute’s Solid Tumor Office.

There’s no typical day as a clinical research coordinator. Some days, coordinators are in the clinic seeing patients. Other days, they’re working at their desks inputting data so it can be submitted into the electronic data capture system that goes to trial sponsors to assess data points for studies.

But every day, Brittany and her dedicated team are moving the field forward. Progress depends on their daily efforts.

“I, like many, fell into clinical research,” said Brittany, who’s worked in various roles at UF Health since 2011. She joined the UF Health Cancer Institute in 2019 in GI cancers and has worked her way up to manager.

“I absolutely love oncology, being part of research and moving medicine forward,” she said.

Myth vs. fact, #ClinicalTrialsDay edition!

Clinical trials are the foundation of medical advances. They’re essential because they help establish better ways to prevent, diagnose and treat diseases like cancer.

But they also provide something much more valuable: hope. By volunteering to participate in clinical trials, patients can help uncover new insights into diseases and improve care for future patients.

“Medical school gave me the best opportunity to challenge myself intellectually, contribute positively to society and provide financial security for my family,” said graduating #FirstGenUF medical student and incoming diagnostic radiology resident C. David Pfaehler II, M.D. ’26. “Perhaps more memorable than anything, though, has been how much I’ve enjoyed the people. My fiancée and family have supported me wholeheartedly, and I’ve made some of the closest friends one could ask for. During our pre-clinical years, we took annual fall trips to the Blue Ridge Mountains as the leaves changed colors, providing the opportunity to slow down, get out into nature and live a little. Medical school is long and arduous, but it’s easier when you’re alongside people you care about. Now, I’m most looking forward to beginning my diagnostic radiology residency in Chicago. My fiancée and I are from the Midwest, and while we love the Southeast, we’re eager to be closer to family while tackling this new challenge together.”

Originally from Independence, Kentucky, Pfaehler became interested in medicine primarily through sports, where he saw team trainers and physicians blend their love for anatomy with athletics and community service. He is a first-generation college graduate and the first doctor in his family. At UF, he served as a co-fundraising chair for the class of 2026, a mentor with and the president of. Congratulations to Dr. Pfaehler and all who graduated today! #FacesOfUFMed #GatorMD #GoGators
“For most of my life, I’ve watched my mother struggle with chronic illness. Seeing how multiple organ systems, as well as social factors, weaved together to shape her health made me realize the need for truly comprehensive care, and I want to be a physician who provides it,” said Maisha Corrielus, M.S., M.D. ’26, a graduating UF medical student and incoming internal medicine resident. “Beyond the commencement celebration, I know this is just the beginning. While there is immense pride in receiving this degree, there is also great responsibility. I realize I will now hold the health of thousands of patients in my hands and I will have an impact not only on them but on their loved ones as well. Residency is where I will build the skills to do so well, and I look forward to having more autonomy, deepening my knowledge and growing as a human.”

Corrielus is a alumna and a graduate of the biology program. During medical school, she participated in the Artificial Intelligence in Medicine research and discovery pathway and received an inaugural Oberndorf Clinical Artificial Intelligence Scholars Award. She also served as the president of the psychiatry club and a clinic officer and health fair officer at the free, student-run Equal Access Clinic Network. But, she says, one of her most important titles is mom.

“When I think about where this journey began — being the first in my family to pursue this path and balance motherhood and caregiving — and compare that to where I stand now, it feels a little surreal,” she said. “I feel immense gratitude and excitement, and I feel especially blessed that I get to cross this finish line with my daughter, Lejla, who has been my biggest cheerleader throughout this entire journey. I hope watching me will inspire her future self to follow her dreams even when it doesn’t seem like the ‘safe’ choice.”

Congratulations to Dr. Corrielus and all who graduated today! #FacesOfUFMed #GatorMD
