Ruger Awarded Labelle Lectureship in Health Services Research Jennifer Prah Ruger, Ph.D., M.Sc., assistant professor in the Global Health Division, has been awarded the 2005 Labelle Lectureship in Health Services Research. The lectureship is given annually by McMaster University in Ontario, Canada. It is awarded in honor of the late Roberta Labelle, health services researcher and assistant professor in the Faculty of Health Sciences at McMaster, to remember Labelle's message that good research makes a difference. The lectureship is given to one young investigator from any country that has a background in health economics and challenges existing methods or accepted ideas in the health services community. The recipient must deliver a lecture at McMaster as well as prepare the lecture for special publication for McMaster's Centre for Health Economics and Policy Analysis's Working Paper Series. Dr. Ruger's lecture, "Health and Global Governance: What's Justice Got to do With It?" will be presented on October 19. It will explore the global challenges of health deprivation spanning across many regions in the world and will discuss policy implications for global health governances focused on health improvement strategies. |
