Lice and lethality: the re-emergence of louse-borne Bartonella quintana in Canada
This webinar describes the re-emergence of B. quintana in Canada, examining transmission dynamics, disease burden, and emerging pathways of spread. The webinar highlights how neglected bacterial infections linked to socioeconomic vulnerability remain concealed drivers of disease and mortality in Canada.
Using Vector and Climate Change Disease Modelling to Inform Surveillance and Response in a Changing Climate
This presentation explores vector modelling and what it tells us about potential vector range expansion due to climate change. It presents, in response to several vector modelling initiatives that include BC, an overview of several different active and passive tick and mosquito surveillance programs that the BC Centre for Disease Control has been engaged with. These projects include active tick surveillance in the province (field work and ticks off birds), passive tick surveillance in companion animals and mosquito surveillance on Vancouver Island and the Sea to Sky region.
What Knowledge Mobilization can look like in research
This session launched the CIHR Embracing Diversity to Achieve Precision and Health Equity Knowledge Mobilization (KM) Hub co-learning activities. These sessions are designed for trainees across the 19 CIHR-funded Research Teams participating in the initiative.
Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) in shelter settings: What it means and why it matters
In this webinar, participants learn to identify indoor environmental quality (IEQ) considerations for congregate settings, explore impacts of aspects of IEQ on the health of people in shelters and understand the connection between IEQ and the spread of infectious diseases.
No Stewardship without Stewards: Resourcing Your Antimicrobial Stewardship Program
Join us for a review of the challenges, successes, and best practices in resourcing antimicrobial stewardship programs.
mod4PH Research Highlights: AIMMLab Mini-series
In this mod4PH podcast mini-series, we will discuss with members of the Artificial Intelligence and Mathematical Modelling Lab (AIMMLab) about how they are leveraging novel AI tools for mathematical modelling and for Canadian public health.
Respiratory virus immunization updates (2025-2026 season)

Voices of Sovereignty Season 1: Navigating Data Sovereignty and Governance for First Nations
This podcast series explores the challenges, opportunities, and best practices surrounding First Nations data ownership, control, access, and possession.
Leveraging Electronic Health Record Data for Chronic Disease Surveillance: Data Quality Challenges
Population-based electronic health data, such as disease registries, administrative data, and electronic medical records are increasingly used to monitor trends and variations in chronic diseases such as diabetes, arthritis, and heart disease. The benefits of these data are timely, efficient, and cost-effective access. However these data were not intended for surveillance, and therefore their fitness for such purposes must be evaluated for these purposes. This presentation explores questions about “fitness for use” of electronic health data in disease surveillance, and explore the role of machine-learning methods to improve data quality.
Novel Partnerships and Approaches for Mosquito Surveillance
This presentation begins with a presentation by Dr. John Soghigian on public-academic collaboration. Then, Dr. Victoria Ng presents citizen science approach to mosquito surveillance.
