Meehir Dixit graduated with highest honors, Phi Beta Kappa, Delta Omega, and Senior Marshal distinctions from Brown University with a degree in Public Health. As an undergraduate, he co-directed Connect for Health, an organization connecting patients with community-based resources to address social determinants of health and was a head teaching assistant for an introductory health policy course. During his gap year, Meehir continued research he began as an undergraduate at Brown’s Center for Advancing Health Policy, where he worked on projects related to private equity in primary care, Medicare Advantage, and pay-for-performance in care for patients with end-stage renal disease. Meehir’s work as a primary and co-author has been published in multiple clinical and health policy journals, including the New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, and the Annals of Internal Medicine. As a medical student, he co-directs the SEVA free clinic and Internal Medicine Interest Group, serves on the Curriculum Review Committee and the board of the Health Policy Interest Group, and continues his health services research. Beyond medical school, Meehir hopes to pursue a career centered around clinical medicine, health services research, and health policy, becoming a policy advocate surrounding access, cost, and quality of care, especially for vulnerable populations.
