Anmol Singh
Anmol Singh began her time at Langara studying biology before transferring into bioinformatics. She started working for the Applied Research Centre (ARC) when her biology instructor, Dr. Ido Hatam, asked if she would be interested in helping with his research.
Singh says, “I was the researcher. I was in charge of researching which algorithms we would use, what the best way to go about things was, and created standard operating procedures.” She adds that her time with ARC was a rewarding experience, because it was an opportunity for her to begin working on a project that was pioneering at that time, and there were daily updates on how the project was evolving.
After graduating, Singh wants to pursue a career in the healthcare system, and specifically on bridging the gap between the current healthcare system and the Southeast Asian community – helping overcome language, cultural, and other barriers.
