Erin Niles, PA-C

Erin completed her undergraduate education at the University of San Diego, graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and minors in Biology, Chemistry, and French. She received her Masters of Science from Baylor College of Medicine’s PA program in December 2016, where she was awarded the Lewis A. Leavitt, MD Academic Excellence Award for the highest scholastic ranking. While completing her Physician Assistant studies, she also obtained a certificate in medical ethics. Since graduating, she has developed an interest in Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) research and continues to engage in medical ethics by serving on the University of Maryland Medical Center’s Ethical Advisory Committee. Currently, she works in the Critical Care Resuscitation Unit at the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center.
Why the PALLA fellowship?
"I hope to gain the knowledge and skills to become involved in academics, grow as a leader and advocate in the profession, and to help educate Maryland’s future PA’s both before they graduate and in post-graduate Critical Care residencies/fellowships."
