„ Servus ! “ – I’m Cindy,

an Indonesian medical student currently living and studying in Munich, Germany, where I’m deeply immersed in both medicine and the future of healthcare.

I grew up in Sumatra Island, Indonesia, in a hardworking and multicultural family. My mother was a single mother of two teenagers and a baby (me) and she owns a small Tante Erma Shop. As I grew older, I used to help her with various tasks around the shop. That’s why I’ve always been diligent and quick in math, so I can assist my mom in counting the bills. While the passing's of my father made me even more intrigued by science, healthcare, and the significance of fostering a supportive community.

Consequently, I made the decision to attend a boarding school in the oldest dutch school in Sumatra, that allows me to concentrate on science, participate in a debate club, and engage in extracurricular activities to acquire multiple languages, including English, German, Arabic, and Japanese.

These early experiences shaped who I am today and eventually brought me to Munich, where I am pursuing my medical degree at LMU/TU Munich and focusing on the interests I truly care about.

Sinnce Covid-19:

Social Media Marketing for Doctors

Like many others, my interest in sharing content online grew during the COVID-19 pandemic. I began documenting my life as a medical student: sharing study tips, personal experiences, hobbies, and reflections on books.

At the same time, my family’s businesses in Indonesia were facing significant challenges. As a result, I took on the responsibility of financially supporting myself while continuing my medical studies in Munich. This experience pushed me to find a way to finance my study in a lock down.

Over time, I started collaborating with doctors (primarily dermatologists), who needed support with their social media presence: increasing their website click rate and helping them get more clients; while managing their clinical responsibilities.

With my background in medicine, I am especially aware of the ethical boundaries involved in healthcare communication. I ensure that all content respects patient privacy, adheres to professional guidelines, and maintains the integrity expected in the medical field.

My Turn-Point:

Europe AI Development in Medicine

That was also the time when I started questioning my path in medical school. I considered switching to something like bioinformatics or a more tech-focused field and got interested in AI developement in medical and pharmaceutical companies.

Later, I attended many events about the rise of AI in Medicine, joining a Makeathon for AI Skin Check (MelaScan) App, and also becoming a member in Marketing of OneAIM University Organization, and that experience gave me new perspectives.

So in the end, I chose to stay on my medical path. And here I am back on track with medicine and open to the AI developments that help improved our healthcare system.

What I Do Today :

Medical School and Working Part-Time

I am currently fully dedicated to my medical studies and actively enhancing my practical skills in medicine through my part-time job and helping doctors with their social media marketing.
