At UBC, we believe that attracting and sustaining a diverse workforce is key to the successful pursuit of excellence in research, innovation, and learning for all faculty, staff and students. Our commitment to employment equity helps achieve inclusion and fairness, brings rich diversity to UBC as a workplace, and creates the necessary conditions for a rewarding career.

The Department of Pediatrics of the University of British Columbia, British Columbia Children’s Hospital, and Sunny Hill Health Centre is one of the largest Pediatric Departments in Canada. Our collaborative team of physicians, scientists, allied health professionals and administrative staff are dedicated to providing leadership and excellence in: Patient Care, Education, Research and Child Health Advocacy. The Department of Pediatrics strives to be a cohesive academic and professional body committed to the advancement of child health through the delivery of exemplary care, teaching and research. We recognize that the enhancement of our Department requires active collaboration and integration with the UBC Faculty of Medicine, associated hospitals, research organizations, and our various stakeholders. We are equally motivated to actively engage with our provincial and national partners, as well as to connect with the international community to achieve collective goals.

The Division of Pediatric Hospital Medicine is one of the largest Divisions, with 26 faculty members. The Division covers different areas, including inpatient wards, complex care, Child Protection Unit and Social Pediatrics. The Division is involved with various research projects including social pediatrics, asthma, UTI and RSV infections. The Division is also involved in various quality improvement projects.

The BC Children’s Hospital Research Institute (BCCHR) is a partnership of UBC and the Provincial Health Services Authority (PHSA) whose programs include BC Children’s Hospital, Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children and the BC Women’s Hospital and Health Centre. The BCCHR is dedicated to high quality research spanning a wide range of concerns relevant to children’s and family health.

The Professorship is partly funded and supported by endowment funds from the BC Children’s Hospital Foundation. Objectives of the Professorship are:

- To develop and support a well-structured research program to further elevate the division into a world-class pediatric hospital medicine site;
- Provide research mentorship to early and mid-career faculty and trainees, within the Division of Pediatric Hospital Medicine;
- Inspire the next generation of trainees and faculty in their own research endeavours;
- Work collaboratively with other clinicians and scientists to develop and lead the Pediatric Hospital Medicine research portfolio with a focus on the common conditions in children that are hospitalized, and challenges of different populations situated throughout the various regions of British Columbia;
- Further develop and expand the Pediatric Hospitalist Medicine multi-center trials unit into national clinical trials super-hub.

Reporting to the Head of the UBC Department of Pediatrics, the incumbent will be a senior-level clinician-scientist with a well-established research program in Pediatric Hospitalist Medicine who can develop new and complement the current areas of focus and research methodologies, in particular a national and international expansion of clinical trials networks in pediatric hospital medicine. They will forge productive collaborations with other members of the division and the BCCHR. The appointee will be expected to mentor early and mid-level career faculty in research, participate in the teaching activities of the Department, as well as provide mentorship and training to undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate learners.
