Profile: Professional
Study: University
Computer engineer Dr. Sam Mazin is the creator of ground-breaking cancer-fighting technology. His business, RefleXion Medical, has created a ground-breaking device that can detect and treat cancer. Previously, many technologies were used for this.
Sam describes his journey from being a young boy who loved math and science to studying computer engineering at a Canadian institution that offers a unique programme that alternates between 4-month study and job assignments. Additionally, he writes about finishing his graduate work at Stanford University, where he was urged to merge biology with computing. The rest is history, as they say.
“I actually got into an electrical engineering program at Stanford but within the first year, I remember that I had a mentor. Every Master’s student is assigned an advisor to help them with their career and life decisions as it pertains to the academics. I’ll never forget. He told me “You really should look at the biological field because computing and biology are starting to come together”. I was focused on computing. When this professor opened me up to this idea of looking at biological applications, I just felt ‘Wow! This a much more direct way to potentially impact humanity, people. Solve problems with engineering principles.'”
