    sarah.furst@hiphealth.ca

    Sarah Lusina-Furst, MSc came to CHHM in 2009, taking on the position of Knowledge Broker for the CIHR funded Vancouver Integrated Study on Aging team (PI: Dr. Karim Khan).  She transitioned into her current position after supporting the development of the Walk the Talk grant (PI: Dr. Heather McKay), which ignited her enthusiasm for the promotion of physical activity and urban health as well as her interest in research-community partnerships.  Sarah is in charge of the day-to-day operational aspects of the team’s work, including budget supervision, team communications and stakeholder engagement.  Sarah has extensive history in the research industry.  Before coming to CHHM, Sarah held positions with the Harvard Medical School (Research Associate, Pulmonary and Sleep Medicine), the Michael Smith Foundation for Health Research (Liaison, BC Network on Aging Research) and Simon Fraser University (Research Coordinator, Environmental Physiology Laboratory). She has a Bachelor’s Degree in Kinesiology from the University of Western Ontario and a Master’s of Science Degree from the University of Western Ontario.  Sarah looks forward to extending her skills and experience in research management, health promotion and community partnerships development.

    Lindsay Nettlefold is currently a postdoctoral researcher at CHHM. Lindsay completed her PhD under the supervision of Dr. Heather McKay and Dr. Darren Warburton.  Her thesis explored the relationship between objectively measured physical activity and sedentary time (measured via accelerometry) and cardiovascular health in children. As part of her thesis she also evaluated the effectiveness of Action Schools! BC (a school-based physical activity model) on cardiovascular fitness in children. Lindsay’s current research remains focused on physical activity and sedentary time as they relate to health outcomes. In particular she is interested in improving measurement and reporting of physical activity and sedentary time, as well as targeting these behaviours to improve health in individuals across the lifespan.
