Sarah Malecki is a General Internal Medicine fellow at the University of Toronto and a PhD student in Clinical Epidemiology and Healthcare Research at the Institute of Health Policy, Management and Evaluation. She earned her B.Sc. from Wilfrid Laurier University and her M.Sc. in Molecular Medicine from the University of Ottawa. Combined with her experience as a support worker for youth with developmental disabilities, this background has fueled her research interest in young adults with medical complexity. Sarah developed research leadership experience during medical training while studying a model condition – 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, and is now expanding her focus to the broader population of young adults with medical complexity. Her goal as a clinician and independent researcher is to improve the lives of young adults with medical complexity, through policy-relevant research that informs new models of care.
