I am the St. Paul's Hospital Chair in Substance Use Research and Associate Professor at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Simon Fraser University and a research scientist at the British Columbia Centre on Substance Use in Vancouver, Canada. Trained in epidemiology, mixed-methods and community-based research approaches, I conduct research to inform public health-oriented approaches to laws, policies and programs and thereby reduce drug-related harm among people who use drugs.
