About

SHORT BIO:

Dr. Ting is a clinical researcher, committed to improving neonatal health. As a Staff Neonatologist, he provides care for high-risk infants born at the threshold of viability, those with congenital heart diseases, and those requiring surgical intervention and multidisciplinary care. Throughout his clinical and research career, he has maintained a prolific research output, contributing to over 150 peer-reviewed publications and three book chapters.

He currently serves as a member of the Executive Committee and the Annual Report Review Committee of the Canadian Neonatal Network. He has been nominated as the Associate Director and Co-Chair of the Nosocomial Infection Group within the Evidence-Based Practice for Improving Quality (EPIQ) initiative, a national multidisciplinary collaboration that facilitates the implementation of evidence-based practice changes to enhance neonatal outcomes.

TRAINING AND EMPLOYMENT:

He completed his medical school training and pediatric residency at University of Hong Kong (HKU) and its affiliated teaching hospitals in 2006. He also obtained a Postgraduate Diploma in Infectious Diseases (2007) and a Master of Public Health (Medical Statistics, 2009). In 2013, he completed his Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine fellowship at University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver, during which time he went to the University of Toronto for 6 months to receive further training in Targeted Neonatal Echocardiograph. He has also completed his MD (research) degree in neonatal infection and antimicrobial stewardship in 2021, and a postgraduate certificate in Safety, Quality, Informatics and Leadership (SQIL) from Harvard University in 2024.

Upon completion of his fellowship in 2013, he was hired as Staff Neonatologist at British Columbia Women’s Hospital. In 2017, he was promoted to Clinical Associate Professor of Pediatrics at UBC, and then recruited to University of Alberta as the tenured associate professor with endowed professorship (Variety, the Children's Charity and the Stollery Children's Hospital Foundation Pediatric Clinical Research Professor) in 2021.

Research

His research areas fall mainly into three aspects:

(i) Neonatal infections - using large population database to examine the impact of infections and antimicrobial overuse on mortality, morbidities and neuro-developmental outcomes; applying knowledge translation strategies to reduce the inappropriate use of antimicrobials.

(ii) Neonatal hemodynamics - using targeted neonatal echocardiography to understand the pathophysiology of hemodynamic changes, and predictors of adverse neonatal outcomes; to explore the impact of possible early interventions to enhance the short and long term outcomes;

(iii) Perinatal epidemiology and outcomes of at-risk infants - using national and provincial perinatal databases to examine the perinatal risk factors leading to adverse neonatal and early childhood outcomes.

Teaching

As a staff neonatologist, he has delivered clinical teaching to learners across various stages of training, including medical students, paediatric residents, subspecialty residents in neonatal-perinatal medicine, clinical fellows, and practising nurses, during ward rounds. Furthermore, he has taught newborn resuscitation workshops for paediatric, obstetrics, and family medicine residents, as well as for nurses and respiratory therapists, and has delivered lectures on a wide range of neonatal topics.

Over the course of his career, he has provided supervision to more than 20 trainees, including undergraduate and medical students, residents, clinical fellows, junior faculty members, graduate students, and postdoctoral research fellows, supporting them in their clinical research projects.

His teaching portfolio also encompasses regular instruction in the Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP), Evidence-Based Improvement in Quality (EPIQ) workshops, and Targeted Neonatal Echocardiography (TnECHO).

Announcements

Currently looking for eligible graduate student (Master/ PhD) and post-doctoral research fellow in the areas of neonatal infections, long-term health outcomes of at-risk infants.
