Elijah Calabaster

After receiving my BS in Biochemistry from Harvard in ‘03 I was involved with research in the fields of immunology and infectious disease. I am now a 4th year medical student awaiting my residency placement. My strengths include diagnostic medicine, biological and chemical sciences, immunology, and I’ve been told that I have a knack for explaining confusing medical and scientific concepts in a down-to-earth way. I welcome both puzzling and run-of-the-mill questions, so feel free to ask about any medical issue your having or are curious about. I have a strong science background so I also welcome any science related questions. I am friendly and enjoy helping bring science into peoples lives. Depending on the response volume I may soon decide to implement a small fee for advice, but for now it comes free of charge.

Besides my academic studies I have participated in immunology and cancer research. I also spent a year in Kenya and Swaziland providing aid for children and single mothers living with HIV.
