Brief Biographical Sketch:

My name is Brady Magaoay and I am very passionate about medicine and becoming a doctor. I am currently debating majoring in Art History and Biology, and it would be great if I could find a intercession between the two. Throughout the school year I am involved in several pre-medical associations and volunteer opportunities. SPLASH is one of my favorite activities here at Stanford and I am very excited to be teaching a new course with my friends on the flu and the complications of the virus. During the winter quarter I had taken a class by the world renown microbiologist and infectious disease physician Dr. Stanley Falkow and was immediately draw to his field of study. Through this teaching seminar my fellow teachers and I will combine our expertise on the flu and secondary infections which complicate and makes the virus such an effective and lethal infectious organism.
