From The Inside: A Conversation with Dr. Shana Burstein
Friday, 19 December, 2025
In this episode, I interview Dr. Shana Burstein, a second-year pediatric hematology-oncology fellow at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. She received her MD from Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 2021, followed by a residency in Pediatrics at the Children’s Hospital at Montefiore. Her current research interest is identifying novel genomic variants associated with pediatric cancer predisposition syndromes. During this conversation, Dr. Burstein shares the challenges and life lessons she learned along the way to becoming a physician. Further, she tells us about the incredible research she has performed from her work with calcium ion channels at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center to the computational biology work she is spearheading at Emory University. Lastly, we close the interview with Dr. Burstein sharing valuable advice for those aspiring to have a successful and healthy career in medicine.
