Excited to share my first publication with my new research team!
We wrote an op-ed for The Boston Globe discussing current regulations for e-bikes and e-scooters, and why prevention remains the most powerful medicine. Give it a read!

Massachusetts laws haven’t kept up with e-bike technology, and children are paying the price, write Natalia Barron Cervantes, Cassandra M. Kelleher, and Peter T. Masiakos.

Remembering this amazing case report! Such a great case with a lot of learning. A retroperitoneal ganglioneuroma is an exceptionally rare surgical entity, even more so in pancreaticoduodenal tumors. Check this case out :) #IMG #MedStudent #Researchfellow https://t.co/aOIlJcwoyf

[Natalia Barron-Cervantes @NataliaBarronMD]

Never thought I’d get something published during med school, especially during internship year. But here we are :) still learning every step of the way, but proud to share this with you! https://t.co/kal6zUSVFI

When I get accepted to medical school,

When I complete my Steps,

When I match,

When I finish residency…

Remember, it’s not about the destination—it’s about the journey! Don’t let the destination take away your ability to enjoy the journey. Be proud of every small success and stay happy with what you do every day.
