Biography

Dr. Jennifer Lane has been teaching at the School of Nursing since 2016 after graduating from the nursing program herself in 2015. Dr. Lane’s lived experience with mental illness and as a lesbian has and will continue to shape her path in the nursing profession.

Dr. Lane’s PhD research (Killam Trusts) sought to understand how health services are delivered to 2SLGBTQ populations in Nova Scotia and informed the generation of new theory that furthered understanding on processes and factors influencing the delivery of health services to sexual and gender minorities in ways that can account for the infinite diversity held by these groups.

Dr. Lane sees mental health and addictions as a tool for fostering equity, diversity, and cultures of inclusiveness within nursing schools and a means by which the health system can undergo equitable transformation.

Her research interests relate to health equity and methodological innovation.
