UNBC Health Research Institute

UNBC Health Research Institute The HRI is designed to enable UNBC’s health researchers to join together for the purpose of furthering health research and innovation.

The UNBC Health Research Institute envisions a world in which healthy individuals, families and communities live without health inequities. The UNBC HRI's mission is to facilitate the creation and translation of knowledge that will enhance the health and well-being of individuals, families and communities. The HRI will pursue this mission through promoting knowledge creation, knowledge synthesis and exchange, fostering links among researchers, stakeholders and partners such as Northern Health, and developing research capacity. The Health Research Institute will have four core strategic directions. While they are outlined here separately, it is anticipated that they will be interconnected in practice:

Knowledge Creation
Knowledge Synthesis and Exchange
Fostering Linkages
Capacity Development

The UNBC Health Research Institute's members conduct research in the following areas:

Biomedical;
Clinical;
Social & Environmental Determinants of Health;
