Welcome to Eric Tkaczyk's Homepage!

You're probably here by accident or already know me, so why waste time with introductions?   But if you like introductions and professional aspirations of an undergraduate, my undergraduate webpage (recently moved from MIT account) continues to consume precious internet bandwidth and might be just the thing.  

Now that I have the good fortune to spend most of the upcoming decade in the University of Michigan MD/PhD program, marketing ploys can give way to a selection of fun pictures !
