Joseph Ting
I am a baby doctor (Paediatrician/ Neonatologist) and clinical researcher focused on improving outcomes for newborns through evidence-based care, collaborative research, and education. Clinically, I care for some of the most vulnerable infants, including those born at the edge of viability, or with complex medical or surgical needs requiring multidisciplinary support.
My research interests centre on neonatal infections and antimicrobial stewardship, neonatal haemodynamics (targeted neonatal echocardiography), and the long-term health of at-risk babies. To date, I’ve published over 150 peer-reviewed papers, more than 100 conference abstracts, and contributed to three book chapters.
Nationally, I serve on the Executive Committee and Annual Report Review Committee of the Canadian Neonatal Network, and Associate Director of the Evidence-Based Practice for Improving Quality (EPIQ) initiative, which supports Canadian neonatal units in implementing data-driven, evidence-informed practice changes to improve outcomes for hospitalised newborns.
Over the coming decade, I aim to improve newborn care nationally and globally through research, education, and system-level change. Outside work, I am a keen reader, particularly of history, literature, and political science.
