Biochemistry alum Omeed Yazdani ’24 earned his master’s degree in bioengineering from the UW in June 2025.
Yazdani’s love of storytelling and medicine will take him to Columbia University this fall for medical school, where he plans to focus on narrative medicine. This intriguing discipline involves listening to and understanding patients’ stories, something that resonates with Yazdani personally.
