Dr. Ofer Agid is staff psychiatrist and a clinician scientist in the Schizophrenia Program at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) in Toronto, Canada. He is the Medical Head, Ambulatory Services and the Lead Psychiatrist, Partial Hospital Program at the Schizophrenia Program. Dr Agid is also Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto and Associate Member, Institute of Medical Science (IMS), University of Toronto. Dr. Agid’s research focus is psychopharmacology in schizophrenia, specifically early response to antipsychotic medications, early predictors of response and treatment resistant schizophrenia. His work has uncovered a new “early onset of action” hypothesis of antipsychotics, which has impacted current practice guidelines for the treatment of schizophrenia. As the medical leader in the First-Episode Schizophrenia program, Dr. Agid initiated an algorithm-based treatment approach for first-episode schizophrenia while collecting extensive clinical data regarding treatment response. This algorithm was implemented to optimize antipsychotic treatment during the earliest stages of the illness, a critical time period in terms of longer-term outcomes. Dr. Agid is a recipient of numerous grants. He presented his research at major meetings and conferences and has published in major psychiatry journals.

Shalini Ahuja is a health services researcher who is working as a Senior Research Fellow in the Centre for Implementation Science at the Health Services Population Research Department, King’s College London. She is interested in using implementation research methods to explore the confluence of evidence-based interventions and how they are delivered throughout health and care systems, in order to support evidence-based policies that can effectively improve global health. Currently, she works for the NIHR ARC National Priorities Programme on Mental Health including children and young people’s mental health (https://www.arc-sl.nihr.ac.uk/research-and-implementation/our-research-areas/mental-health-implementation-network). She works towards catalysing and evaluating the co-produced implementation of high impact, evidence-based mental health interventions, at key stages of the life course, supra-regionally within the National Health Services. Prior to this, Ahuja was working with NIHR Health Protection Research Unit at Imperial College London for ASPIRES project. Here, she supported the development and evaluation of context specific behavioural, structural and technological interventions aiming at optimising antibiotic usage across the surgical pathway in England, India, Rwanda and South Africa. She holds an PhD in Health Services Research from King’s College London and a master’s degree in Health Management, Planning and Policy from University of Leeds.
