Biography

Professor Deber’s current research centers on Canadian health policy. Current projects, conducted with colleagues and students, include examining the implications of the distribution of health expenditures and the public/private roles in financing and delivering health services, including primary care. Additionally, her work focuses on the examination of nurses and health professionals' work, and the factors associated with differential "stickiness" in various healthcare sub-sectors. She also investigates issues associated with the movement of care from hospitals to home and community, approaches to accountability, and factors affecting patient engagement. Professor Deber is the winner of the Emmett Hall Memorial Lectureship in 2009 and has published journal articles, book chapters, and books, including serving as the editor for "Case Studies in Canadian Health Policy," written by students who participated in her case course.
