Biography

Stephanie Glegg is a pediatric occupational therapist and implementation scientist. She studies the best ways to move knowledge into action to improve health care services, systems and outcomes. Her research aims to make practical changes that enhance the experiences of children/youth, families and health care providers, and to support informed health care decision-making based on research, lived experience, clinical experience, and other ways of knowing and being. She partners with children/youth, families, community organizations, health professionals, decision-makers and others, whose involvement throughout the research process drives meaningful change from diverse perspectives. Her family life includes time with her husband, kids, and a pandemic pup named Rolo, who brings joy and stray fur to every occasion. If she weren’t a researcher, she would be a pastry chef (also a science and an art). In any remaining spare time, she can be found jamming with other musicians on her 272-year-old cello.
