Knowledge Philanthropists

Miriam has joined PHA Canada as a knowledge translation volunteer to contribute to the PH Blog and Connections magazine.

She has been part of the PH community since 2016 and has written about PH for other publications to raise awareness of this rare disease.

After completing a master’s of science degree at the University of Toronto, Miriam worked on different science communication projects and is now excited to share impactful research stories with the PH community.

In her spare time, Miriam always has a good book and a knitting project on the go.

Chloé has been a volunteer for PHA Canada since February 2020. She is helping our Marketing & Communications Coordinator, Laurence Richard, with PHA Canada's digital marketing strategy.

Chloé has a lot of experience with NGOs, charities and social businesses, which has been a source of fulfillment. She is happy to contribute in helping a cause. It gives great meaning to her life.

Her volunteer work with PHA Canada brought her to meet new people, learn more about PH, and gain more professional experience in a new country, since she is originally from France!   

Chloé has been living in Vancouver since October 2019. She is passionate about nature and hiking, so Vancouver is the perfect fit for her!

Arjun Pandey is doing his undergrad in the Health Sciences program at McMaster University (currently in his 3rd year).

He has been working with PHA Canada for the past 5 years on knowledge translation and public awareness initiatives after his aunt was diagnosed with PH.

Arjun is also currently involved in epidemiological research in Pulmonary Hypertension under Dr. Sanjay Mehta.

In his spare time, he loves to play basketball, squash and is a huge fan of astronomy.
