She also conducted novel research in the laboratory during her free time. She transferred her enthusiasm to her medical school studies at Ross University, where she helped to establish a charity health clinic, was hired to help teach anatomy to her fellow medical students and served multiple other leadership roles, while still graduating with high honors. Dr. Hure went on to complete her Internal Medicine internship at Yale-New Haven-affiliated Saint Mary’s Hospital.
