Panel Member : Return on Investments in Health Research (2007.01)

Renaldo Battista, University of Montreal


Dr. Renaldo Battista (M.D., M.P.H, Sc.D., F.R.C.P (C)) is Professor and Director of the Department of Health Administration (DASUM), and Director of the Institut d'évaluation en santé (IDÉES) at the University of Montreal. He was on staff in the Departments of Epidemiology and Biostatistics and of Medicine at McGill University, from 1982 to 2003. He was president of the Quebec Council for Health Technology Assessment (CETS) from 1994 to 2000, and President and CEO of the Quebec Agency for Health Services and Technology Assessment (AETMIS), from 2000 to 2004.

His most significant research contributions can be grouped under three headings: integration of preventive services with clinical practice; development and implementation of clinical practice guidelines; and health technology assessment. Together they testify to a continuous and evolving interest in knowledge transfer or the creation of effective linkages between the production of scientific information and its use by health professionals, managers and decision makers. Dr. Battista was a member of the Advisory Board of the Institute of Health Services and Policy Research of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research from 2001 to 2003. He is a member of the Scientific Advisory Board of Health Canada since January 2005, and holds the Canada Research Chair in Health Technology Assessment (HTA) since October 2005. He was elected member of the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences in 2006. He is President of the Canadian Association for Health Services and Policy Research since 2007.
