Anthony Wong

My name is Anthony and I'm a PhD graduate in Fundamental Immunology from the University of Toronto. There, I studied immune cells in the healthy and diseased heart under the supervision of Dr. Slava Epelman, a cardiologist at Toronto General Hospital. My research and review articles are published in peer-reviewed scientific journals, including Science Immunology and Nature Reviews Cardiology. I am currently a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the University of British Columbia in the laboratory of Dr. Fabio Rossi, where I am testing new RNA vaccine formulations for COVID-19 in mice, and assess vaccine efficacy compared with existing COVID-19 vaccines. I am passionate about science communication, and have been working as an undergraduate sciences educator for over 7 years as a Teaching Assistant, Lecturer, and Course Instructor.
