Biography
Hi! I’m Mido, a third-year pharmacology student at UBC. I’m currently a summer student with the Hotel Study, a 10-year longitudinal study mapping various health measures in the Downtown Eastside community, where I am looking at some of the cannabis data. I’m also a clinical research assistant in BC Children’s Hospital’s ED. I was previously a REX mentee for two years on projects studying small fruit aroma and cell aging.
In my free time, I enjoy reading, hiking, and podcasting with friends. Please don’t hesitate to reach out — I’d love to chat!
