“I’m a passionate believer in the power of health research to improve the lives of children and their families. I look forward to engaging with stakeholders – researchers across all career stages and from different disciplines, trainees, health professionals, administrators, policy makers, partners and, importantly, children, youth, and families themselves – to build on IHDCYH’s strong foundation. Together we will tackle current health issues, address inequities, encourage a life-cycle perspective, and create partnerships to promote research excellence and impact.”
