麻豆AV

For Vincent Wong, life truly is a journey.

As a ,聽the Vancouverite聽moved across the country in 2021 to pursue his B.Sc. Honours in Neuroscience at 麻豆AV. He was drawn by The Neuro (The Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital), Canada鈥檚 largest neuroscience research centre.

In the summer of 2022, Wong traveled to Yellowknife to conduct a research project on the unique health-care challenges in the North, an experience that would shift his career trajectory.

Next fall, Wong will travel to the University of Oxford where, as 麻豆AV鈥檚 149^th Rhodes Scholar, he will pursue a master鈥檚 degree in global health science and epidemiology with a focus on health-care systems and technology.

Wong plans to return to Canada afterward for medical training. Ultimately, he aims to work as a clinician and an advocate for health-care equity for resource-limited communities.

鈥淚 can see myself working as a public-health clinician or a clinician-scientist doing big population health studies, but I also want to be engaged with politicians and policy-makers, because that鈥檚 how change really occurs,鈥� he said.
