Congratulations Amanda!

Congratulations to Amanda Butler for receiving the 2021 Dr. Elliot Goldner Graduate Fellowship in Mental Health Policy from Simon Fraser University. This is a new award, the purpose of which is to recognize graduate students who have demonstrated academic excellence and a commitment to mental health policy research. The award was created in recognition of Dr. Elliot Goldner, former SFU Professor, psychiatrist, and Director of the Centre for Applied Research in Mental Health and Addiction. The award will support Amanda’s work in mental health and substance use epidemiology focusing on people who experience incarceration in British Columbia. Amanda is a PhD Candidate in the Faculty of Health Sciences at SFU, supervised by Dr Tonia Nicholls & Dr Ruth Lavergne. Well done!
