2024-2025 Editors


Devika Dua: Editor-In-Chief From Ruston, Louisiana, Devika is a junior at Rice double majoring in Cell Biology & Genetics and Social Policy Analysis while being on the pre-med track. Being from a small and rural community, she’s especially determined in exploring the social determinants of health and how health equity, policy, and ethics intertwine given the global uncertainty and crisis our current healthcare system faces.

Outside of academics, she enjoys reading literature, watching musical films, and expanding her violin repertoire.	Chloé Serna: Prose Editor Chloé is a senior at Rice studying Philosophy and Medical Humanities. She’s drawn to philosophy because it wrestles with questions that rarely have clear-cut answers – something medicine often shares. She’s interested in applying philosophical frameworks to think through the ambiguity inherent in many clinical contexts. In her free time, Chloé enjoys board game nights with her roommates, watercolor painting, photography, and volunteering with the Women’s Resource Center.

Bethany Grassi: Prose Editor Bethany is a sophomore at Rice University, where she studies Health Sciences, Biochemistry, and Medical Humanities on the pre-med track. Her work centers on the intersections of science, compassion, and community care, where clinical practice meets lived experience.

In her free time, you’ll often find her playing violin in orchestra, reading a good mystery novel, or spending time with friends.
