Sandra C. Buttigieg is Professor and Head of Department of Health Systems Management and Leadership (HSML), Faculty of Health Sciences, UOM. She is the current President of the European Health Management Association. She is also Consultant Public Health Medicine, Head-Clinical Performance Unit, and Chair-Patient Safety and Quality Improvement Team, Mater Dei Hospital. She is the outgoing Global-Representative-at-large of the American Academy of Management-HCM Division. She lectures in HSML, Patient Safety and Clinical Risk Management, Public Health, Family Medicine, Research Methodology and Evidence-based Health Research (EVBRES).

Professor Buttigieg strongly advocates inter-/trans-disciplinarity within HSM in practice/research. She believes that health organisations'/systems' performance as a macro-concept depends on policies, people and operating systems. Her research, therefore, focuses on, but also links, clinical performance management, quality of care, patient safety, organisational behaviour, SHRM, operations management/research; and policy issues (ageism, migrant health, One Health).

She authored/co-authored several articles in peer-reviewed international journals, and widely participated in international conferences, and congresses. She is on the Editorial Boards of Heliyon, PloS One, Health Services Management Research, International Journal of Human Resources Management, Journal of Health Organization and Management, and Frontiers Public Health. She is Frontiers Topic Editor: "Network for Evaluation of One Health (NEOH) Case Studies"; "Patient Safety: Delivering Cost-Contained, High Quality, Person-Centered, and Safe Healthcare" and "Health Service Management and Leadership: COVID-Style".

She is Fellow of two programmes of the Salzburg Global Seminar, related to health care, which were led by amongst others, past presidents of the Institute of Medicine, namely, Donald Berwick and Harvey Fineberg.

Professor Buttigieg was visiting scholar in US (JMU -Harrisonburg, VA), UK -University of Birmingham and Aston University, Birmingham, and Kuwait (Faculty of Allied Health Sciences, Kuwait University).

Professor Buttigieg participated in the EU-funded programmes: Horizon2020 - To REACH; COST Actions: CA17117: EVBRES; CA19113: Second Victims; CA 15222 "cost containment and quality of care (leader-WG 1); TD 1404 NEOH (co-leader-WG 3); IS 1402 “ Ageism (co-leader-WG 1); and IS 1103 “Adapting European Health Systems to Diversity" (country-coordinator).
