One of our goals was to learn more about proteins and their activity in living organisms. As I started to learn more about pharmaceuticals and biochemistry, I grew interested in medicine. I wanted to be more involved with directly caring for patients and switched my career path to pursue medical school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Education:<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Medical school: <\/strong>University of Washington School of Medicine<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Research interests: <\/strong>Cardiovascular disease, especially right ventricle dysfunction and aging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Medical interests: <\/strong>Cardiac anesthesiology, echocardiography<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Professional Memberships:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>American Medical Association<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>American Society of Anesthesiologists<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wyoming Medical Society<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>American College of Physicians<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How I fell in love with anesthesiology:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anesthesiology is the field of medicine where all my interests intersect. I enjoy the unique blend of pharmacology and physiology, and I am excited to have the opportunity to care for patients from across the lifespan, including childbirth, childhood, and adulthood. I realized that I wanted to be an anesthesiologist when I found myself looking forward to mastering the skills that I will need to care for patients in the perioperative setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why UNMC? <\/strong>Being from Wyoming, I value the autonomy that is required of physicians who choose to practice in rural environments. At UNMC, I know that I will be challenged early with a robust and highly varied caseload that will prepare me for practice after residency. I value the strong supportive and friendly culture that I found here, and I hope to contribute as an energetic and curious learner.<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Three things people may not know about me:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I grew up in the Rocky Mountains and enjoy fly fishing, especially dry fly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I enjoy rock climbing, specifically indoor bouldering.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I speak Portuguese and enjoy cooking and eating Brazilian cuisine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Caleb Hoopes is a
