Abstract

A group of population health researchers from the U of R and U of S has been granted $750,000 from the Saskatchewan Health Research Foundation (SHRF) to find out. The initiative, entitled Population Health Intervention Research: Addressing Health Inequities in Vulnerable Populations, will be led by Bonnie Jeffery, Faculty of Social Work, at the University of Regina and Nazeem Muhajarine at the University of Saskatchewan along with a team of researchers from disciplines such as geography, economics, kinesiology and health, and political science. The researchers are part of SPHERU - the Saskatchewan Population Health and Evaluation Research Unit - which has a permanent presence in Saskatoon, Regina, and Prince Albert, and conducts research with communities across the province.
