Dr. Singer brings over 25 years of leadership in health innovation, public health policy, and global development. At WHO, he played a key role in developing the organization's global strategy and "triple billion" targets, supporting implementation across programs and member states. His work focused on measurable country-level impact, coordination among multilateral health agencies, and aligning health investments with sustainable development goals. [1]

Prior to his tenure at WHO, Dr. Singer served as Chief Executive Officer of Grand Challenges Canada, where he oversaw over CAD $450 million in funding to support more than 1,000 health innovations across 90+ countries. These initiatives were designed to address global health challenges with measurable, cost-effective solutions.

Dr. Singer has received several national and international honors, including the Michael Smith Prize as Canada's Health Researcher of the Year in Population Health and Health Services, and appointment as an Officer of the Order of Canada for his contributions to global health and bioethics.

As Scientific Advisor, Dr. Singer will contribute to LIR's strategy for expanding access to affordable obesity treatments globally. His expertise in health system innovation and equity-focused policy will support the Company's mission to address the rising global burden of obesity with practical, scalable solutions.

"Dr. Singer's track record in advancing global health innovation speaks for itself. His experience leading international health initiatives and shaping health policy at the highest level will be instrumental as we work to make obesity treatment more accessible, particularly in regions where effective care remains out of reach. In addition to his scientific and strategic expertise, Dr. Singer brings a deep understanding of how to translate innovation into measurable health impact at scale. This perspective aligns closely with our mission," stated Edward Mills, CEO of LIR Life Sciences.
