In this talk, Drs Harris and Rothman will share their work using CanCHECs to create a child and youth cohort of over 4 million children (CanCHECKids). They will discuss findings from two recent publications: one prospective cohort focused on individual/household determinants and a second nested case-control study focused on area-level indicators. They will examine the differences between the individual and area-level results and the implications of these findings for injury prevention.
This workshop will explore what knowledge translation and co-design look like in practice through three case examples. The speakers will share lessons for working collaboratively with different interest holders to create knowledge products that are relevant, engaging and useful.
This presentation will explore how social media is reshaping brain health research and care. Drawing on empirical evidence from thousands of posts and comments, it will examine why people across the lifespan use social media to discuss mental and cognitive health, and the consequences of both amplifying and silencing health information online.
