Dr. Peter Gill is a general paediatrician and a Scientist at the SickKids Research Institute, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Paediatrics, University of Toronto, and a Senior Associate at the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine, University of Oxford. His patient-oriented research program focuses on improving the care and outcomes for hospitalized children on the general paediatric ward. Dr. Gill is the Co-Founder and Vice-Chair of the Canadian Paediatric Inpatient Research Network (PIRN – https://www.pirncanada.com/), a network of children’s hospitals and several large community hospitals.
His motivation to conduct research is to improve outcomes for the children he cares for in hospital. Outside of work, he loves spending time with his two girls (3 months and 5 years) where he's usually covered in stickers and playing with Barbie's and LOL dolls (don't ask). As a proud home owner, he enjoys home improvement projects (crown moulding, board and batten, trim) and finding reasons to buy new tools.
