Assistant Professor, Department of Medicine
My research centres on generating evidence to inform the design and implementation of novel tuberculosis prevention and care strategies that maximize public health impact, while minimizing health system and patient costs. My primary aim is to optimize identification and treatment of tuberculosis infection to prevent progression to tuberculosis disease, with a particular focus on prevention among persons born outside of Canada鈥攁 population disproportionately impacted by tuberculosis. I also have an interest in improving the treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis and efficiency of active tuberculosis case-finding activities in high-burden areas. Beyond tuberculosis, I have an interest in testing strategies for SARS-CoV-2 and methods to evaluate public health emergency preparedness and response, with a view to identify priority areas for investment.
- Cost-effectiveness of universal and targeted tuberculosis infection screening and treatment prior to initiation of tumour-necrosis factor alpha inhibitors at the Montreal Chest Institute.
- Identification of population groups with favorable risk-benefit profiles for tuberculosis preventive treatment using health administrative data in British Columbia.
- Improving the quality and utility of tuberculosis surveillance data to monitor and inform tuberculosis elimination in Canada.
