About Research Canada

We believe health research and innovation are a shared benefit and responsibility and an investment in Canada’s future. We engage and work with government, academia, industry and non-profit sectors to build support for balanced and long-term health research funding–investments that strengthen Canada’s innovation system and lead to better health, sustainable health care, new commercialization opportunities and skilled jobs for Canadians.
Our Mission: To improve the health and prosperity of all Canadians by championing Canada’s global leadership in health research and health innovation.
