[[File:Academycampus.jpg|thumb|300px|Starfleet Academy in San Francisco, where Yogan Yalu attended medical school from 2393 to 2397]] The following year, Yalu began applying to medical schools to continue his studies. Although he received acceptance letters from several schools on Trill and other planets, he ultimately decided to attend Starfleet Medical Academy. He had not seriously considered a career in Starfleet previously; his choice was likely influenced by the memories of his sixth host Auzell, a dedicated Starfleet officer who had lost her life in the Dominion War. Attending Starfleet Academy would also reunite Yalu with Earth, the planet where he was born and lived until the age of ten. While excelling in such subjects as medical ethics, diagnosis, and critical care, he struggled with genetics and surgery, earning a "D-plus" in the latter during his second year. As he did during his undergraduate career, Yalu concurrently earned the credits equivalent to a minor in astronavigation while attending the Academy, and he graduated with an M.D. and a Level 5 pilot's certification in 2397. | [[File:Academycampus.jpg|thumb|300px|Starfleet Academy in San Francisco, where Yogan Yalu attended medical school from 2393 to 2397]] The following year, Yalu began applying to medical schools to continue his studies.

The Symbiosis Commission contacted Yalu in November 2397 to request his return to the Trill homeworld, so that he could complete ''zhian'tara,'' a ritual ceremony required of all Joined Trill. A Guardian, Rohjess Beem, followed up on this communication three months later with instructions, rather than a request, to report home for the ritual. Yalu successfully completed ''zhian'tara'' in April 2398. | The Symbiosis Commission contacted Yalu in November 2397 to request his return to the Trill homeworld, so that he could complete ''zhian'tara,'' a ritual ceremony required of all Joined Trill.

In mid-2398, Yalu experienced an unexpected and life-threatening drop in isoboramine levels following an encounter with a species of energy-based lifeforms called the Skarn, who resided on an uncharted planet in the Briar Patch. Initially, routine isoboramine injections were sufficient to maintain a healthy neural connection between host and symbiont, but as the year progressed, their effectiveness decreased. The host's behavior became erratic as the balance with the symbiont was increasingly disrupted. Near the end of the year, Dr. [[Genkos Adea]] successfully cured Yalu's condition. | |||
