About Chelsea

I’m Chelsea Li, a dedicated medical student in the M.D./Ph.D. program at Stanford University, where I combine my passion for neuroscience with a commitment to compassionate patient care. With a strong academic background, including a Bachelor’s degree in Human Biology from the University of Virginia, I have been recognized with numerous awards for my research and leadership in the medical field. My experiences as a volunteer EMT/firefighter and crisis hotline specialist have deepened my understanding of the human experience in healthcare, driving my desire to bridge the gap between scientific research and clinical practice. During my own application cycle, I received 20+ interviews and was accepted to 7+ programs and would love to share the knowledge I have gained through that process. I aim to empower aspiring medical students by providing them with the tools, resources, and mentorship needed to navigate the complexities of medical education and succeed in their journeys to becoming compassionate healthcare professionals.
