Integrated Human Health: Equity, Disease & Prevention

The central tenet of this cluster is to develop and disseminate research knowledge to improve the health of Canadians. Researchers in this cluster perform clinical, bio-medical, population and Indigenous health research, using methodologies from the natural, clinical and social sciences. This integrated health approach focuses not only on traditional biochemical/biomedical research, but also investigates social, political, economic, cultural and population aspects of health. This cluster serves as a focal point for promoting interactions between researchers, clinicians, policy makers and the public. It provides a resource for local community interactions and information on health research.
