  are_there_any_other_research_oriented_clubs_you_participate_in_: 'During UROP, I conducted research assessing how race and socioeconomic status influence disease severity in patients diagnosed with eosinophilic esophagitis. I examined how race, income, and insurance could predict major EoE severity (while also examining covariates such as sex, admission type, and complications) to identify any disparities in EoE and outcomes and contribute to efforts to improve access to care and to develop targeted interventions for underserved populations.'

  selected_response: 'UROP has had a significant impact on my time at FSU by giving me the opportunity to get involved in research early in my academic career. Through UROP, I was able to connect with a mentor who shares my research interests and values and who is genuinely invested in my well-being and success. The program has taught me so much about conducting research, presenting findings, and working as part of a research team. It has also strengthened my passion for research and helped me feel more confident in my academic and career aspirations. Overall, UROP has been an amazing experience, and I would recommend it to any student interested in getting involved in research.'
