Colleagues bid a fond farewell to the heart and soul of the BC-CfE, Senior Director Irene Day
Many times you hear this and might think it is said in jest, but if you ever spoke with BC Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS (BC-CfE) Senior Director of Internal and External Relations and Strategic Development Irene Day, you would know that (most times) she really meant it. The Cape Breton native has devoted the past 15 years to moving the BC-CfE’s world leading research forward to every corner of the globe. She’s had a powerful impact on local, national, and international healthcare leaders alike with her quick wit, intelligence and passion for equitable healthcare. Because of this, it came as a shock to many this past February when the BC-CfE announced the March 31st retirement of one of its most passionate and trailblazing leaders.
