On Friday, members of the University of Rochester School of Medicine class of 2014 will receive their degrees.
Among those newly graduated doctors will be Claire Melin of Philadelphia.
Claire will become the third generation of women in her family to get a medical degree.
She follows in the footsteps of her mother and her grandmother, who started at New York's Downstate medical school in 1947.
