Program Team
Lindsay Baker is the Associate Director, Curriculum Integration and Partnerships at the Centre for Faculty Development. Her work focuses on the purposeful integration of her curriculum development, teaching and qualitative research expertise to develop ethical, competent, and compassionate faculty. At an overarching level, her research uses constructivist and critical approaches to examine the boundaries and relations between disciplines, professions, and knowledge communities. Similarly, she integrates constructivist, transformative, and critical pedagogical approaches to education in my faculty development practice. She recognizes the importance of valuing multiple forms of knowledge and ways of knowing and understanding and try to weave this philosophy through her work.
Maria Athina (Tina) Martimianakis is Professor and Director of Medical Education Scholarship, at the Department of Paediatrics, and Scientist and Associate Director (Collaborations and Partnerships) Wilson Centre. Tina studies issues related to the learning environment and professional identity negotiations.

Her research contributes to both theory building and educational practice.
