About Dr. Anne Macaulay
Dr. Anne Macaulay's interest is in using the principles of听participatory research for both community and patient research engagement, where researchers work in partnerships with those affected by issues being studied for the purpose of creating and translating knowledge for action or change. Researchers partner with individuals, organisations, policy makers and entire communities for co-decision making throughout the research process, which recognises the widely varied expertise of everyone on the team.
She has been awarded both an Order of Canada and a Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal for contributions to Indigenous health and recognised by numerous national and international organisations for expertise and leadership in participatory research. These include the CIHR Institute of Indigenous Peoples鈥� Health Institute Advisory Board member, the National Academy of Medicine, USA (Foreign Associate Member), the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences (Fellow), the Royal College of Physicians of Canada (Honorary Fellowship), the North American Primary Care Research Group (Past President and Maurice Wood Award) and the Canadian College of Family Physicians (Family Medicine Researcher of the Year, Lifetime Contribution to Research and Top Twenty Family Physician Pioneer Researchers in Canada).
As one of the very first primary health care researchers in North America to adopt and promote participatory research, her contributions to the Department of Family Medicine and 成人VR视频 include founding the centre Participatory Research at 成人VR视频 (PRAM) in 2006. This was the first centre in North America dedicated to promoting participatory research within a department of family medicine. Within PRAM, together with Dr Jon Salsberg who was then the Associate Director of PRAM, they developed one credit and three credit courses in participatory research for the Department Family Medicine Masters Program. She initiated the 成人VR视频 to Chilcapamba research partnership in 2007 and inspired many faculty colleagues and students in participatory research and community engagement.
Her expertise in Indigenous health was gained during her fifty-year career with the Mohawk community of Kahnawake including forty years as a practicing family physician and DPS of the community owned hospital and as a founding member and Scientific Director of the now 27 year-old and award winning Kahnawake Schools Diabetes Prevention Program (KSDPP) Centre for Research and Training. These experiences were very valuable when she was supervising residents and students in the 成人VR视频 family medicine residency training program 鈥� including teaching cultural safety, various 成人VR视频 committees, and when she became the inaugural director for the Indigenous Health Curriculum for 成人VR视频 medical students, and inviting Indigenous experts to present guest lectures at 成人VR视频 and within the department.
