In this episode Martha speaks candidly with Joy Johnson, a distinguished health scientist and researcher in gender and health with a particular focus on promoting health and modifying health-related behaviour. In particular, she has studied the different health behaviours of women and men in terms of how gender affects how they react differently to drugs and other therapies. With an impressive record of scholarship and academic administrative appointments, Dr.Johnson was the first woman to be appointed Vice-President Research at Simon Fraser University in 2014. In 2020, she was appointed the 10th President and Vice-Chancellor of SFU and has recently been reappointed as President for another five-year term. What a treat it is to be able to have a conversation with Joy Johnson, an extraordinary scholar and academic leader.Episode ResourcesPiper, Martha and Samarasekera, Indira.
