Biography
Monica Parry is a Professor in the Lawrence Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing at the University of Toronto and a Nurse Practitioner with over 35 years of cardiovascular (CV) clinical experience at Kingston Health Sciences Centre. Her clinical expertise has laid the foundation for a program of research to reduce the global burden of CV disease in women by 2030. Her program of research addresses five of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (2015-2030): #3-Good Health and Well-Being, #5-Gender Equality, #9 Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure, #10-Reduced Inequalities, and #17-Partnerships for the Goals. Monica is a member of the Canadian Women’s Heart Health Alliance (CWHHA, https://cwhhc.ottawaheart.ca/national-alliance/cwhha); a Co-PI and Chair of the Knowledge Mobilization and Implementation Subcommittee of the Health Research Training Platform in Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism (MyRoad); and a Co-I with the CANadian Consortium of Clinical Trial TRAINing platform (CANTRAIN). She is currently leading a research team to develop and test at heart, the first progressive WebApp developed for women with heart disease using the pervasive information architecture of mHealth interventions, a user-centred co-design approach, and the sequential phased approach recommended by the Medical Research Council. Monica is also an AMS Fellow in Artificial Intelligence and Compassionate Care, with an overall aim to integrate attributes of compassion into conversations between at heart’s Chatbot and women with heart disease. Monica has also received advanced training from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research to engage patients as partners in health research and is currently funded (CIHR) with Clinical Trials Ontario to develop a toolkit/decision resource for patients and investigators wishing to engage in Patient-Oriented Research (POR).
