Hello! My name is Michelle Holland and I am a General Surgery resident at UAB originally from Louisville, KY. I was lucky enough to join Dr. Fonseca’s Lab during my professional development/research time after completing two clinical years at UAB. My research as part of The Fonseca Lab focuses on improving access to optimal cancer care for patients by identifying areas of opportunity and subsequently intervening to reduce disparities affecting our unique patient population. Additionally, I am fortunate enough to also be pursing my MBA during this time in an effort to meld the clinical side with the business side of medicine. Outside of the hospital and the classroom, you can find me with my dog, Weller, adventuring through the outdoors with my partner, or soaking up time with my incredible co-residents and family.
