“From this point forward, we are no longer simply students of knowledge—we are now responsible for creating it." - PhD candidate Humberto Ochoa, speaking on behalf of the Morningside Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences Class of 2026 #UMassChan2026 #UMass @uofmass.bsky.social

“None of our patients know what kind of person we are going to be when we walk in the door. But the truth is, we get to choose. Find out what you have and just run with it." - Suhas Suddala, graduating today with an MD/MBA, to the Classes of 2026 #UMassChan2026 #UMass @uofmass.bsky.social

“As a nurse, I have seen how communication, trust and teamwork shape every outcome. Wherever you go, one truth remains: You are not alone. The best patient outcomes happen when teams collaborate with trust and respect." - PhD in Nursing student William Mar, RN, MSN #UMassChan2026 #UMass
