UNB receives $1.25M to establish Hon. Joan Kingston Research Chair in Health Innovation

The University of New Brunswick will establish the Hon. Joan Kingston Research Chair in Health Innovation thanks to a $1.25M gift from the Hon. Joan Kingston Foundation. The inaugural chairholder is UNB Faculty of Nursing Assistant Professor Alexis (Ali) McGill, who will research health-care innovation and contribute to the university’s teaching, research, public service, and models of primary care service delivery. “Joan Kingston is a UNB Nursing graduate who has worked tirelessly to further nursing education in New Brunswick, so it is tremendously fitting that this research chair in health innovation should be named in her honour,” said UNB Dean of Nursing Lorna Butler.
