"I understand residents cannot take electives until their 4th year through your residency program. The electives that interest me the most are thoracic and cardiac imaging, which is the fellowship I would like to pursue once I complete my residency. I am also interested in the 4-week radiology global health elective in Kenya. I spent a month in Kenya last year doing clinical rotations, and I fell in love with the people. So, I would be happy to be involved in doing ultrasounds and CTs in the hospital in Kijabe."
