    The University of Alberta acknowledges that we are located on Treaty 6 territory, and respects the histories, languages and cultures of First Nations, Métis, Inuit and all First Peoples of Canada, whose presence continues to enrich our vibrant community.

    The University of Alberta is teeming with change makers, community builders, and world shapers who lead with purpose each and every day.

    We are home to more than 40,000 students in 200+ undergraduate and 500+ graduate programs, over 13,000 faculty and staff, 260,000 alumni worldwide and have been recognized as one of Canada's Greenest Employers for over a decade.

    It also conducts health technology assessments (HTAs) and evidence reviews for Alberta Health.

    The main role of this position will be to lead the production of Health Evidence Reviews (HERs) at the request of government.
