How has being a Chemistry graduate from Duke helped shape you personally and/or professionally?

"After graduated I completed an MD/PhD at NYU. Although my research is no longer based in chemistry, I think the process of learning chemistry and the conceptual based learning rather than pure memorization has helped me."

What advice would you give students in Duke's Chemistry programs? 

"Pursue what interests you even if you do not know the end goal that will come with time."
