Our Advisory Board provides advice to our Scientific Director to inform and influence our work. The Board members bring a pan-Canadian perspective, and act as a liaison between our Centre and public health practitioners, students, researchers, policy makers and community groups. Members are practitioners and academics from most Canadian provinces and territories who come from a range of expertise, backgrounds and networks.
