BC Children's Hospital Research Institute
Dr. Guttmann was recently named inaugural co-executive director of the University of Toronto's Edwin S. H. Leong Centre for Healthy Children, a new research centre focused on improving health equity for children and their families.
Dr. Guttmann's research aims to improve inequities in child health through population-based studies that inform or evaluate health and mental health system programs and policies. She has held three salary awards including a research chair from the Canadian Institutes for Health Research in Reproductive, Child and Youth Health Services and Policy Research. Current grant funded work includes a large-scale evaluation of Canadian refugee resettlement models assessing long-term refugee health and social outcomes, and work with Southern Ontario First Nations around prenatal opioid use. Dr. Guttmann co-leads MHASEF, a government funded data and research initiative at ICES, which has built capacity to report on and evaluate the Ontario Mental Health and Addictions Strategy and related programs.
She sits on several scientific and policy advisory committees, including the UCL Great Ormond Street Hospital Institute of Child Health’s International External Advisory Board, and the Ontario Provincial Council for Maternal and Child Health.
