Dr. Erin Hobin (PhD) is a Scientist at Public Health Ontario and an Assistant Professor, Status-Only in the Dalla Lana School of Public Health and the Department of Nutritional Sciences at the University of Toronto. Her research focuses on developing and evaluating population level interventions for chronic disease prevention, specifically in the areas of healthy weights, healthy eating, physical activity, and alcohol control.
