Biography

Specialist in occupational medicine and public health, Dr. Susan Stock works at the University of Montreal School of Public Health's Department of Social and Preventive Medicine. With over 30 years of research experience, her work primarily focuses on the prevention of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). She leads the Scientific Group on MSDs at the National Institute of Public Health of Quebec, collaborating with university researchers, public health professionals, and industry stakeholders to conduct relevant public health research. This research aims to inform public health practitioners about the prevention of MSDs and promote knowledge application in the field. Her multidisciplinary projects often employ a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods to document the extent of injuries, associated disabilities, and professional exposure prevalence. Additionally, she studies the workplace as a determinant of health and the role of working conditions in health inequalities. Her methodological studies involve developing and validating health measures for individuals with MSDs. Her team is known for its strong output in publications, research grants, and organizing national and international conferences. Since 2003, her work has contributed to incorporating MSD prevention into Quebec's National Public Health Program.
