Biography

Paul Ronksley is a Professor at the Cumming School of Medicine at the University of Calgary, where he specializes in health services research and epidemiology. He holds a PhD in Epidemiology and has completed a Post-doctoral Fellowship in Clinical Epidemiology at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute. His research primarily revolves around patients with multiple chronic conditions (multi-morbidity), focusing on understanding the factors that drive healthcare utilization and spending among this subset of patients. Ronksley utilizes innovative data-linkage methodologies to explore co-morbid profiles of multi-morbidity patients and how their care pathways can be optimized to improve health outcomes. His work contributes significantly to the fields of administrative health data, electronic medical records, systematic reviews, meta-analysis, and chronic disease management, particularly among non-communicable chronic conditions. Apart from his research, he is actively involved in various strategic initiatives at the university and teaches advanced courses such as Systematic Reviews & Meta-Analysis and Advanced Epidemiology.
