Dr. Perry is Associate Professor with the Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Ottawa, and a Senior Scientist with the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute. He completed the family medicine residency program at the Memorial University of Newfoundland and emergency medicine residency at the University of Manitoba and subsequently completed the Emergency Medicine Research Fellowship at the University of Ottawa, and obtained a Master of Science in Epidemiology in 2002. He holds a Research Chair in Emergency Neurological Research from the University of Ottawa. He previously held a Canadian Institutes for Health Research New Investigator Award and an Ontario Ministry of Health Career Scientist Award.
He is a peer reviewer for several granting agencies and journals. Dr. Perry supervises masters students in the Department of Epidemiology. Dr. Perry's research program is now very well-established and has published a large and growing number of peer-reviewed publications. His major research studies have been in the area of neurological emergencies. He has lead several large multicentre prospective clinical decision rule studies to improve care for patients with headache, subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), elderly patients with minor injuries at risk for subsequent functional decline and transient ischemic attack (TIA).
