Julia Abelson

Professor, Health Research Methods, Evidence, and Impact

My work is rooted in a strong desire for health polices to reflect the values and priorities of their intended beneficiaries – citizens, communities and populations. In pursuing this goal, my academic and volunteer work has been unified in its focus on supporting governments and organizations in Canada and around the world to understand how to rigorously and respectfully involve citizens and service users in a wide range of health policy decisions.
