Monica Bronowski completed an undergraduate degree in neuroscience at Dalhousie University, with a focus on innovative neurotechnology. Before starting her PhD, she worked in hematology, oncology, and bone marrow transplant (BMT), conducting clinical trials across various study phases for multiple myeloma, bone marrow transplant, and CAR-T therapies. This experience exposed her to both early and late-phase clinical trials, deepening her interest in translational research.

Currently, Monica is a PhD student at the University of British Columbia in the Department of Urologic Sciences. Her research focuses on microbiome changes associated with kidney transplantation outcomes, particularly how the donor’s urinary microbiome affects recipient graft function.
