S1E10--Shawn Carbonell: From Brain Surgeon to viral TikTok Creator (and more‪)‬ The Dropouts

    • Self-Improvement

In the Season Finale, Ash T MD reunites with his buddy from UVA medical school, Shawn Carbonell MD PhD. 

Shawn would eventually go on to become a brain surgeon.  

But he dropped out of residency to chase a bigger dream—a cure for glioblastoma (brain cancer).  

Over the decades, he's had a lot of challenges and put on many different hats including Founder and CEO of OncoSynergy. Fast forward to today, he's a mix of viral content creator, cofounder of Brazen Capital, and an inventor of a drug for recurrent glioblastoma currently in clinical trials.  

Find Shawn Carbonell on TikTok as @brainsurgerydropout, Youtube as  @brainsurgerydropout, Instagram as @brain.surgery.dropout, and Twitter as @bigaxon.
