From Science to Policy to Pandemic: Reflections on my experience as Deputy Minister of Health Canada from 2019 to 2024

Dr. Lucas' talk and Q&A will span a wide range of issues that Health Canada faced during this time, including the COVID-19 pandemic, health data, digital health, AI, climate change, dental care and pharmacare, the opioid crisis and toxic drug supply, and primary care. Please join us for this unique opportunity to hear directly from Dr. Lucas’ experience as a central decision-maker in Canada’s healthcare system. The in-person lecture is open to all, and registration is not required. A light lunch will be served.
