Milad proposed a new policy for JHSOM to award Intermediate MS Degrees (IMD) to PhD students to recognize their achievements en route to their PhD and help their professional development. After three years of working with SOM deans, his proposal was approved, and SOM PhD programs that decided to award IMD can now do so for the first time ever. He also advocated for international students as an ISAH ambassador and by raising their issues with US lawmakers. His work on cancer genomics was published in Gut and his first-author manuscript was recently accepted in Genome Research.
Martin has an earnest commitment to fostering inclusivity, support, and engagement in both Hopkins and the broader community. He readily assists those in need by suggesting resources and kindly advocating on their behalf. Additionally, Martin champions improved working conditions for PhD students as a highly active member of TRU-UE’s Contract Action Team. Outside Hopkins, he works to enhance science communication / accessibility in Baltimore, and his cross-polarization images of everyday objects are featured in the Spring 2024 Project Bridge SciComm magazine. His “microscopy art” helps act as a bridge between creative, visual expression and scientific principles.

The Graduate Coating Ceremony honors Ph.D. candidates who have passed their qualifying exams, transitioning from a Ph.D. student to a Ph.D. candidate. Each coat is embroidered with the student's name and with a graduate student pin affixed, which represents the unity of each of the 16 Johns Hopkins University doctoral programs.
