Dr Hirdes is a Professor at the University of Waterloo School of Public Health Sciences and chairs interRAI's Network for Mental Health and the interRAI Network of Canada. His primary areas of interest include assessment, mental health, ageing, health services research, quality measurement, and quantitative research methods.
