I am Ettaib El Marabti, but people call me E sometimes. Born and raised in Morocco, I received some of my education in Qatar, Pittsburgh and New York City. I have lived in 3 different continents in the last 4 years (Africa, Asia, America) and I speak 3 languages, Arabic, French and English.

My passions are M&M – Music and Medicine. I am a classically trained pianist/composer and a medical student at Weill Cornell Medicine, hoping to become an Oncologist. My introduction to cancer has been through research and I’ve been curious about it ever since. I have seen/taken care of cancer patients during my medical training and I’ve realized how despicable of a disease it is. In summary, I hate cancer but I love the challenge it poses to modern medicine. Therefore, most of my research has been on malfunctioning molecular mechanisms (e.g. RNA splicing) in cancers such as breast cancer and hematologic malignancies.
