Show Notes
He’s a doctor and scientist who’s helped steer Canada’s public health systems through new diseases like COVID-19 and through a revolution of data-based health care. Dr. Vivek Goel, president and vice-chancellor of the University of Waterloo and CIHI’s former Board chair, joins host Avis Favaro to discuss his long career as an academic and the insights he gained as chair of a federal expert advisory panel that called for an end to barriers that prevent health data from being shared more widely in this country — roadblocks that he says are stopping Canada from becoming a health information powerhouse.
