Bio

Dr. Gregory Moore is an academic neonatologist practicing at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario and The Ottawa Hospital. After obtaining his medical degree from the University of Western Ontario, he completed his Paediatrics and Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine training at the University of Ottawa (Canada). He then enjoyed an enriching fellowship year at the Royal Women’s Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. He returned to Ottawa in 2009 as an attending neonatologist and an assistant professor through the University of Ottawa. In 2016, he was promoted to associate professor. He is a Clinical Investigator with the CHEO and Ottawa Hospital Research Institutes and, since 2022, the Program Director of the RCPSC Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Program at uOttawa. In 2021, he completed his MSt in Practical Ethics via Oxford University (UK). His areas of academic interest are bioethics with a focus on working with families when their baby may be born extremely preterm, and post-graduate medical education. Outside ‘hospital life’, he enjoys time with his family and cycling.
