Richard is currently pursuing an Honours BSc in Global Health with a specialization in health promotion & disease prevention at York University. Prior to his studies at York, he graduated with a BSc in Honours Science, with minors in Biology, Chemistry, and Medical Physiology from the University of Waterloo. His interest in research stems from previous experiences working as a Research Assistant with the Department of Emergency Medicine at St. Michael's Hospital, where he was involved in projects looking at out-of-hospital cardiac arrests, trauma, and adjunct therapies for severe COVID-19.
As a research assistant with the Global & Environmental Health Lab at the Dahdaleh Institute, he will be working with Prof. Godfred Boateng to examine the effects of energy and housing insecurity on psychosocial health outcomes for those living in informal settlements in Ghana.
