Leonardo Romano

Leonardo Romano is a second-year MSc student in the School of Public Health and Health Systems under the supervision of Professor Paul Stolee. He completed his undergraduate degree at the University of Waterloo, majoring in Health Studies with a minor in Gerontology. Leo’s interest in the health of older adults started very young through his relationships with his grandparents. Leo’s research interests include evaluation, geriatric mental health, and care coordination, both independently and in their interplay. For his thesis, Leo will be conducting an evaluation of a novel home-based care coordination program, which will attempt to integrate primary care into a home care setting more seamlessly. In his spare time, Leo enjoys reading, music, and making kombucha.
