April 9, 2018 (OTTAWA) —An innovative applied research collaboration to bring medical information closer to patients has received $91,000.
This new investment will accelerate an ongoing research collaboration between the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario and Algonquin College.
The new funding was awarded by the Children’s Hospital Academic Medical Organization Innovation Fund competition through the Innovation Fund provincial oversight committee.
The funding (over two years) supports a joint project called Insight Scope, a crowdsourcing software platform that aims to significantly accelerate the synthesis and translation of medical evidence to the bedside.
