Understanding Children with Medical Complexity in the Maritime Provinces
2021 Health Systems Impact Fellowship RecipientThe Strengthening Transitions in Care research lab is very proud to announce that post-doctoral fellow, Dr. Mari Somerville, has been awarded the 2021 Health Systems Impact Fellowship Award. Mari is using a learning health system lens to design, implement and evaluate quality and patient safety initiatives at IWK Health. This work has the potential to strengthen existing policy and service models and increase value-based care across the organization. This research will also serve as a catalyst to enhance strategic partnerships to improve quality and safety in the Maritimes.
Congratulations Mari! STIC leading Covid-19 research of Variants of Concern
Two years after its emergence, the global impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic persist. Supported by the SPOR Evidence Alliance and COVID-END, researchers in the STIC lab are investigating the prevalence and impact of Variants of Concern (VOCs). The goal of this work is to highlight new data on VOCs, their epidemiology and how they impact the management of the pandemic. The focus will be on changes to parameters such as transmission rates and clinical outcomes of severity and mortality, impacts on diagnostic tests, vaccine effectiveness and impacts on other public health measures.
