I am a vaccine safety scientist at the Vaccine Evaluation Center, a leading center for applied vaccine research in Canada.

My research interests include vaccine safety and vaccine preventable diseases, as well as attitudes and beliefs around immunization uptake and use.

I am also the epidemiologist for the Immunization Monitoring Program, Active, a national surveillance system for vaccine preventable diseases and vaccine adverse events in 12 pediatric tertiary care centers across Canada.

I lead CIRN’s Canadian National Vaccine Safety network: cirnetwork.ca/network/national-ambulatory-network/ monitoring the safety of influenza vaccines in Canada.
