Transcript: Top 5 reasons for why I would like to attend CWRU School of Dental Medicine By Anita Nasseri “REAL” curriculum The curriculum at CWRU School of Dental Medicine is one of the most unique aspects of the school. It would be an honor for me to experience the REAL curriculum and be a part of this groundbreaking education system. The team-based and problem-based learning styles would allow me to improve my critical thinking ability while collaborating with my colleagues. I highly believe that the REAL curriculum will prepare me to provide the best treatment plan and care to my future patients. “REAL” Curriculum Strong clinical experience Strong Clinical Experience Being able to get early clinical exposure is a valuable opportunity for every dental student. It is amazing that at CWRU students have the opportunity to see patients during the first year through the Healthy Smiles Sealant Program. Furthermore, the state-of-the-art clinics, high-tech equipments, and learning in groups that operate like mini-practices will prepare me to be a skilled and confident dentist. Research opportunities Research Opportunities Another aspect of the CWRU dental program that greatly interests me is the variety of research opportunities. I’ve been conducting research since my first year of college and would like to pursue research in dental school, too. It is impressive and fascinating to learn how CWRU's faculty and students contribute to the improvement of oral health and new treatments. I would love to explore interdisciplinary research opportunities throughout my dental education and contribute to the improvement of oral health. Community outreach programs Community Outreach Programs The numerous community outreach opportunities play an important role in my decision to choose to apply to Case Western. Serving and giving back to my community has always been an important aspect of my life and Case Western will allow me to integrate community service in my dental education. Through opportunities such as the Healthy Smiles Sealant Program, Cleveland Free Clinic, CWRU Day of Giving, and Give Kids a Smile Program, I will be able to learn more about the barriers to accessing oral healthcare while gaining clinical experience. Moreover, through these experiences, I will be able to leave long-lasting impacts on many communities and contribute to the improvement of many individuals' oral health. Commitment to excellence and leadership Commitment to Excellence and Leadership Through CWRU's challenging but rewarding curriculum, I will learn how to set goals for my professional excellence and how to take responsibility for my own learning experience. CWRU-educated dentists are not only excellent professionals, but they are also confidant leaders in healthcare. Being an excellent leader that positively impacts the community has always been one of my most important professional goals, and I believe that CWRU will help me achieve that goal. TOPIC TITLE As I have learned more about the CWRU School of Dental Medicine, I have become more confident that it is the best fit for my career goals. I believe that CWRU will provide me with a comprehensive education and all the opportunities I need to become a successful dentist. Throughout this presentation, I not only showed you why I am interested in CWRU's dental program, but I also showed you another passion of mine, photography! All the photographs within this presentation are pictures that I have taken. TOPIC TITLE Lastly, I would like to thank you for the invitation to interview. I appreciate the opportunity and look forward to meeting you. Thanks for your time, Anita Nasseri

Transcript: The courses in my global health minor raised my awareness of how important access to dental healthcare is to the public. This topic is a true concern for our country. I am interested in working with promotion and policies to improve oral health and hygiene in communities that do not receive adequate care. 1. Opportunity to be part of a dual degree in DMD and MPH 2. Clinical Experience Preparation 3. Research Opportunities 4. I have the skills and attributes to succeed and contribute to the dental program The clinical experience I will gain at CWRU SoDM will provide me with a competitive edge by giving me a broad spectrum of cases to observe and learn from. I am eager to gain as much clinical experience as possible while in dental school so that when I begin practicing dentistry I will feel confident and comfortable working with patients. Case Western will help me develop this confidence because I will gain substantial experience in the clinics. Next Stop Shadowing dentists in Uganda provided me with a unique learning opportunity that highlighted the importance of public awareness and outreach. This experience provided a sharp contrast to my experience shadowing in the United States and taught me what it means to be a dentist in a broader sense. Dentists have a duty to serve those in their community by acting as public health ambassadors, utilizing their skills to help others and look out for the best interest of those in need. Early in my search for dental schools Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine appealed to me because it has a DMD/MPH program. I am attracted to the curriculum and the goal to promote oral health through organized community efforts. Global Health Experience I am Ready for CWRU SoDM Dentistry and Public Health I am excited to meet you and to have my first experience as part of the CWRU SoDM community. Best, Asha Ghassemlouei My variety of experiences in dentistry coupled with my personality and skill set make me a strong candidate for your program. In addition, I believe CWRU SoDM is a fitting match for me because the program will present me with the opportunities I will need to build a solid foundation upon which to achieve my goals to serve my community and be an advocate for public health. I have gained hands on experience at a dental school preparatory course and realize that the dentistry I loved shadowing was even better when I was the one with the tools in my hands. My courses and experiences as a researcher and biology peer mentor at UW-Madison and my experiences studying abroad in Ireland have helped to prepare me for many of the things I will encounter in the next four years. I have demonstrated leadership and teamwork skills as a high school track coach, and a volunteer group leader and team member for the past 3 years. I realize dental school will be challenging and I will experience hardships along the way, but I am ready to take this next step and I see no better place to do it than at CWRU SoDM. Three weeks ago I ran the Twin Cities Marathon and through my training and racing I have learned that in tough times you must keep pushing yourself and if you believe in yourself, you can do things you didn't know you were capable of. As a student at CWRU SoDM I will bring diverse experiences and perspectives, which along with the experiences of other future dentists, will contribute to a diverse and productive learning environment. GOAL! Research Opportunities I began working in a pediatric exercise physiology lab as a sophomore. I was regularly exposed to new terminology, equipment, procedural methods and physiology. In lab meetings I was excited when I followed the mechanisms and procedures that the graduate students and doctors proposed and found myself wishing I could work on their projects and help them answer the questions they were investigating. Things I learned working in the lab related to my coursework and helped me in my classes. It was exciting to see my heart on an ultrasound before I learned about the heart in detail in anatomy. CWRU SoDM has a strong research program and I would like to take part in the Summer Research Program because I enjoy exploring questions and working towards solutions. I believe research is valuable and will enhance my problem solving skills and benefit my future profession as a dentist by giving me greater exposure to problems in the field.
