Prior to joining Professor Butt’s research program, Cameron has held numerous leadership positions at several of Canada’s largest hospitals and research organizations, including the Health Sciences Centre Winnipeg, Hotchkiss Brain Institute, and the University Health Network.

Global health systems continue to be on the quest of pushing the quality of life and life-expectancy envelope, but at the expense of three socio-economic factors: cost, environment and equity. Taking a health economics approach, Cameron’s research aims to better understand the relationship of syndemics in the context of these socio-economic factors and how these factors have led to the widening of disparities and disequilibrium in global health systems.
