Peter von Dadelszen Appointed CHII Interim Director
Dr. Peter von Dadelszen has been appointed Interim Director for the Centre for Healthcare Innovation & Improvement (CHII), effective immediately. Dr. Patti Janssen has agreed to accept a role as Assistant Director of the Centre.
Dr. Shoo Lee, who had been Director of CHII since 1999, recently moved to Edmonton to become Director of a new research centre (as yet unnamed) that will bring together all the health services researchers at the University of Alberta.
Dr. von Dadelszen will work with CFRI Executive Director Dr. Stuart MacLeod and Dr. Janssen to develop a short-term plan for CHII. External reviewers conducted a thorough review of CHII in late October; a finalized report will likely be available early December and will be presented to the CFRI Board of Directors at its January meeting.
The institute will also be establishing a search committee, headed by Dr. MacLeod, to recruit a new Director of CHII. The committee will define the expectations of a new director and will manage the search. The institute is currently consulting with key stakeholders regarding search committee membership; the search committee will be announced by December 15.
