Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson University) is inviting applications for a Postdoctoral Fellow in digital health and primary care research within the School of Information Technology Management, Ted Rogers School of Management (TRSM), in partnership with OntarioMD.
The project focuses on advancing the measurement and evaluation of digital health maturity in Ontario’s primary care system. The successful candidate will work on the validation of OntarioMD’s Digital Health Maturity Model, develop practical assessment tools for primary care facilitators, conduct literature reviews, and contribute to peer-reviewed publications, conference presentations, and future grant applications.
Research themes include health services research, health informatics, digital health implementation, primary care digital optimization, Delphi methodology, and psychometric validation. The role involves collaboration with OntarioMD staff, clinical partners, and academic supervisors, with direct relevance to provincial health system improvement.
Supervision is led by Dr. Vess Stamenova (Primary Supervisor and PI, TRSM/TMU), with industry co-supervision from Simon Ling (OntarioMD) and Dr. Chandi Chandrasena (OntarioMD).
Eligibility requires a PhD in health services research, health informatics, digital health, public health, or a closely related field, conferred before the start date. Strong academic writing and research-methods experience are required; experience with Delphi studies, primary care, Ontario’s health system, survey design, and psychometric validation is preferred.
This is a one-year full-time postdoctoral appointment with a salary of CAD 60,000 per year, and extension may be possible depending on funding and mutual agreement.
