Bio:

My name is Ramneek Cheema and I’ve been a M.Sc student in the Chan lab since Jan 2023. I have a BSc in Biomedical Sciences specializing in Bioinformatics from the University of Waterloo. With my computation background, I aim to develop a quantitative optimal diet modelling framework that can be used to estimate the impacts of climate change on the availability of fish stocks and MeHg and PCBs intake levels for coastal First Nations communities in British Columbia. Alongside my research, I have a strong passion for community-based science.

Research Interests:

My research interests consist of population health and diet modelling, optimization techniques, climate change effects on fisheries, science communication and science based policy.
