Benjamin Singer
Member, Maternal & Child Health Research Institute (MCHRI)
BioBen Singer is a postdoctoral scholar with interests in mathematical epidemiology and global public health. Ben's research career began with an internship at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology, where he applied quantitative skills he had learnt studying physics at the University of Oxford to the study of nematode locomotion. Ben further pursued quantitative methods in life sciences in the Interdisciplinary Bioscience Doctoral Training Partnership at the University of Oxford, earning a DPhil (PhD equivalent) in mathematical methods for evaluating pandemic risk and control. During these studies he maintained an interest in global public health policy, interning with the UK government's Department for International Development, where he developed models of international COVID-19 vaccine distribution. Ben is now working in Nathan Lo's research group at Stanford, creating infectious disease models informing public health policy for schistosomiasis, hepatitis E, and other infections.

Armandeep Singh
Affiliate, School of Medicine - Biomedical Ethics
BioArmandeep Singh is a rising senior at the University of Toronto, pursuing a double major in Human Biology and Biochemistry, and aspires to become a physician. Originally from Punjab, India, he is passionate about medicine, education, mentorship, and helping others feel supported and capable. As a Scholar in Stanford’s Storytelling and Medicine Program’s Class of 2026, he is exploring the role of storytelling in medicine. His interest in storytelling comes from his own life experiences and from the people he has met through teaching, research, and community service. His participation in Yale’s Foundations of Bioethics program deepened his interest in clinical ethics, public health, and the human side of healthcare. His research interests include cardiovascular health in South Asian communities and the use of immersive virtual reality to make complex scientific concepts more accessible and engaging. Armandeep’s interest in medicine was also shaped by his father’s illness and recovery, which showed him the difference a compassionate physician can make in a family’s life. He hopes to become a physician who sees patients and their families as whole people shaped by their stories, circumstances, and lived experiences.
