Madeleine Matthews
Madeleine is a graduate student at the Institute of Medical Science, University of Toronto and a Research Trainee at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health. Her work examines how sex and gender are conceptualized, integrated, and reported in clinical research. Through her research with RareKids-CAN, a national pediatric rare disease clinical trials network, she uses critical qualitative methods to develop sex and gender-focused tools for investigators, to help improve sex and gender considerations for children with rare conditions in Canada. Madeleine is also passionate about science communication, knowledge translation, and community-partnered participatory research, striving to bridge the gap between human research projects and the communities they seek to serve.
