Personal Biography
My name is Harsh, and I'm an international student from Singapore working towards my career as a physician-changemaker. My research interests are in ancestry based functional genomics, and my recent work at the Vascular Medicine Institute elucidated the role of the HNF1A gene in ischemic stroke risk among patients of African descent. I'm keen on exploring the intersection between precision medicine and social justice!
