We have another new member of the lab and Wilson Centre fellow, Johanna Riesel.
Johanna completed her plastic and reconstructive surgical training at Harvard University before completing a pediatric craniofacial fellowship at SickKids. Her clinical interests are in cleft and craniofacial surgery, facial reanimation, general paediatric reconstruction, surgical education, and global surgery. Her research interests include improving outcomes in endoscopic strip craniectomies, neurocognitive outcomes for craniosynostosis, optimizing surgeon performance in the operating room, and improving access to high-quality surgical care in limited-resource settings.
She is currently obtaining a Masters in Medical Health Professions Education to further her interest in optimizing surgeon performance in the operating room. Johanna serves as the Director of the Wellness Program for the University of Toronto Plastic Surgery Residents.
