About

Sonia Singla’s research sits at the intersection of emerging digital health technologies and chronic disease management. Her most cited work, “Virtual Reality in Non-Communicable Diseases” (2019), explores how immersive VR environments can be repurposed beyond gaming to support prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation for conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and respiratory disorders. While still early in her career—her top-cited paper currently holds 2 citations—Singla’s contribution lies in framing VR as a scalable, low-cost tool for patient engagement and behavioral modification in non-communicable disease (NCD) care. She highlights how interactive simulations can improve adherence to therapy, reduce anxiety, and provide remote monitoring capabilities. Her work signals a growing recognition that digital therapeutics, including VR, may become essential components of integrated NCD management. As the field matures, Singla’s foundational analysis offers a roadmap for clinicians and technologists alike, positioning her as a forward-thinking voice in the digital health landscape. Her research is particularly relevant for students and practitioners interested in the convergence of human-computer interaction, public health, and chronic disease innovation.
