Description
Hamna Ammar tells her own story in a first person interview from 2026. The series talks with first authors of papers in a biology journal. Ammar's paper dealt with a gene needed in mouse cells that form heart and hind limb parts. She did that work as an undergraduate in a Toronto lab at a children's hospital research center.
Ammar is now a masters student at the University of Toronto. Her new work looks at genes and home factors in heart disease. She has a special focus on heart health in mothers and on heart defects present at birth. In the interview she traces her path. It began in a plant lab course, where editing a gene sparked her interest in the field.
