SPH Research
As an inter-disciplinary centre of research excellence, the School provides opportunity for innovative thinkers and leading national and international scientists from diverse disciplines to work closely with each other and the public to understand and solve population health issues.
Our faculty and students are encouraged and supported to build comprehensive research portfolios, to collaborate with colleagues on a University-wide, provincial, national and international level, and foster research opportunities which work to solve public health issues in communities locally and globally.
Our research is centred on the following core areas:
- Indigenous peoples' health
- Human-animal health interface (One Health)
- Population health interventions
- Epidemiology
- Quantitative methods and biostatistics
- Vaccinology and immunotherapeutics
