Sophia Aburmeileh

Sophia is a Doctoral Candidate in Medical Health, having completed her practicum at Atlantic Healthcare, where she participated in grand rounds and case studies on the bioethics of in-patient, outpatient, and palliative care across multiple hospitals. Her educational background is in biomedical studies, with a focus on protecting and maintaining patient autonomy—particularly for patients impacted by neurodegenerative diseases and disorders. During her low-residency program, she dedicated significant time to women’s reproductive rights and improving healthcare for women.

Her industry experience spans work as both a biological scientist and a research scientist in biotech, where she learned federal-level quality assurance while collaborating with the New Jersey Department of Health. She also has extensive process and product development experience, integrating quality and efficiency to partially automate tasks once performed solely by hand, thereby increasing production while maintaining high quality standards.
