Meet Dr. Gillian Bartlett-Esquilant, Family Medicine Research and Graduate Program Director

Published: 25 January 2017

When Research and Graduate Program Director Dr. Gillian Bartlett-Esquilant, joined ۲ݮƵ’s Department of Family Medicine in 2005, primary care research in Canada was still in its infancy. Dr. Bartlett-Esquilant — who completed her PhD in Epidemiology and Biostatistics at ۲ݮƵ and her postdoctoral work at Université de Montréal — was brought in by then-Department Chair Martin Dawes specifically to help increase ۲ݮƵ Family Medicine’s research capacity. “The Department is now a leader in terms of primary care research,” she says. “Since my recruitment in 2005, we’ve built a graduate program and a clinician scholar program that is a research-focused program for residents through the Canadian College of Family Physicians and we were one of the first to be accredited in Canada.”
