Dr. Deborah Cook, shown here with St. Joseph's Hospital CEO Allan Greve, has been appointed to fill the country's first chair in critical care medicine. The Hamilton internist was appointed to the McMaster University/St. Joseph's Hospital Regional Academic Chair in Critical Care Medicine in June. Cook, who chairs the 60-member Canadian Critical Care Trials Group, marvels that it took so long to create this type of chair in Canada. The appointment will allow her to establish an academic program in critical care medicine, with a focus on clinical interventions and ethical issues.
