In Our VoICES – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Please note, this podcast was recorded before the holidays, which is why we refer to holiday dinners in one of our questions.

Our guest:

Dr. Daniel Myran is a public health and family medicine physician and researcher. He holds the Canada Research Chair in Social Accountability at the University of Ottawa, and is an ICES Adjunct Scientist, Investigator at the Bruyère Health Research Institute, and a Clinician Investigator at The Ottawa Hospital. His program of research involves using health administrative data to examine the burden and societal impact of mental health conditions and substance use. Dr. Myran’s primary focus is examining the health impacts of changes in alcohol/cannabis and drug policies and their influence on health inequities. As a secondary area of interest, he uses big data to examine the health of physicians and their practice patterns.
