I am an academic physician practicing pediatric emergency medicine at McMaster Children's Hospital. My research interests include capacity building in neonatal care and child injury prevention.
Working with faculty at the Johns Hopkins International Injury Research Unit, I am currently working on a project examining factors associated with child passenger helmet use in Cambodia. I am also researching novel methods to estimate helmet use in Bangkok Thailand.
Recently, at the Centre for Global Child Health, SickKids Hospital, I co-developed a 3 week Specialized Newborn Care Education curriculum as part of the Canada-Africa Initiative to Address Maternal, Newborn and Child Mortality. This is a partnership among four Canadian organizations – Amref Health Africa, Christian Children’s Fund of Canada, SickKids Centre for Global Child Health and WaterAid Canada. I have taught this curriculum in Tanzania and Malawi.
As a volunteer, I have been working with The Lake Clinic - Cambodia, since 2011. I have assisted this NGO in publishing their first research article, implementing the Helping Babies Breathe program, and, most recently, implementing a comprehensive newborn care program in collaboration with faculty from Johns Hopkins University.
