Oncology: Vice-President

Hi everyone, I’m Vaishaanth, running for Vice President.

I have held numerous leadership positions, most recently being Sponsorship Officer of Oncology, where I cold-emailed numerous organisations to receive funding for our society. Furthermore, I was the Events Lead of MedTech, where I successfully organized the inaugural ‘Introduction to Python and Machine Learning’ workshop. Additionally, I am the Networking Officer of Doctorpreneurs, where I connected with leaders in the MedTech space and invited a few down for our workshops and conference. Furthermore, my time serving national service in the Singapore Armed Forces allowed me to interact with and understand people from different cultural, socio-economic, and educational backgrounds, working harmoniously with them. I’ve also liaised with other army units in the proper handover of logistics, for the smooth running of training. These experiences have honed my leadership skills significantly, allowing me to navigate uncertainties and difficulties with great clarity and confidence.

As Vice President, I hope to achieve these:

  1. Actively assist the President in the smooth running of the society
  2. Initiate a mentorship program to connect passionate students with leading oncology researchers
  3. Improve outreach for our events and conference, while also collaborating with other oncology societies across London

I am a diligent person, who will give my best in everything I do. As such, I hope you vote me as your next Vice President. Thank you!
