McGill University is seeking to recruit an internationally recognized, interdisciplinary scientist with a strong track record in innovation and research leadership to direct a new program in climate change, environment, and health that is supported by a prestigious CERC award. The CERC program supports Canadian universities in their efforts to build on Canada's growing reputation as a global leader in research and innovation. The program supports world-renowned researchers and their teams to establish ambitious research programs at Canadian universities. These awards are among the most prestigious and generous available globally.

We seek an internationally recognized scholar whose research addresses the interconnected impacts of climate change, biodiversity loss, and/or ecosystem disruption on human health. The successful candidate will lead a bold, solutions-oriented research program that spans the life, environmental, and health sciences, with particular emphasis on bridging ecology, population health, and climate resilience through interdisciplinary tools and methods. The CERC Chairholder will be mandated to build a multidisciplinary research team that reflects a diversity of lived experiences, identities, and career stages. Their research may include emerging climate-health threats, biodiversity-related determinants of well-being and/or health, and interventions to reduce vulnerability and promote health equity in a changing environment. The Chairholder will also be expected to establish strong links with government agencies, civil society, and industry partners, as appropriate, to ensure equitable access to the knowledge produced and that social and health benefits that will flow from that knowledge.
