There is no right or wrong answer to this personal interest question. It primarily aims to offer an insight into your personality by understanding who in the medical profession you admire or who inspires you. Share the figure you admire most, showcasing your enthusiasm and historical medical knowledge. Share what about that person resonates with you the most and why they stand out in your mind. Be relatable and try to inspire conversation. How well you get along with your interviewer will also offer insights into how well you will get along with the mentor they place you with. It's also a great idea to think of the most burning question you would have for that individual.

"If I could meet anyone in the history of medicine, I would go back to the very beginning and meet Hippocrates. I find it fascinating that he was the first person ever to believe that disease and death were not a result of the anger of gods. I would ask him about the first conversation when he said that disease is not caused by superstitious beliefs. He would have had to have faced so many roadblocks, yet, he continued to believe in his work."
