Dr. Robyn Tamblyn is a Professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Clinical Epidemiology at McGill University's Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. She serves as a Senior Scientist at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre (RI-MUHC) within the Cardiovascular Health Across the Lifespan Program and the Centre for Outcomes Research and Evaluation (CORE).
Dr. Tamblyn's research focuses on conducting observational and interventional studies in public health and health services delivery aimed at improving healthcare safety and quality. Her work centers on identifying modifiable determinants of adverse events and improved health outcomes through analysis of large linked clinical and administrative databases. She leads a research team that develops and evaluates computer-enabled interventions to address modifiable risk factors, including computerized decision-support systems, personal health record portals, self-management tools, and automated surveillance systems.
Analysis of Dr. Tamblyn's publication record reveals a strong emphasis on medication safety, pharmacoepidemiology, and healthcare informatics. Her research spans multiple domains including medication adherence, inappropriate prescribing, deprescribing interventions, medication reconciliation, and the use of electronic health records for pharmacosurveillance. A notable trend in her work is the development and evaluation of technology-enabled interventions to improve medication management and reduce adverse drug events across various healthcare settings.
As a Senior Scientist at RI-MUHC, Dr. Tamblyn leads research initiatives within the Centre for Outcomes Research and Evaluation, focusing on healthcare quality improvement and patient safety. Her work bridges clinical medicine, epidemiology, and health informatics to address critical gaps in healthcare delivery systems. She collaborates extensively with clinicians, pharmacists, and health services researchers to implement evidence-based interventions that directly impact patient care.
