Established in 1984, the CHEO Research Institute
coordinates the research activities of CHEO and is one of
the institutes associated with the University of Ottawa Teaching
Hospitals. The Research Institute brings together health professionals
from within CHEO to share their efforts in solving paediatric
health problems. It also promotes collaborative research outside
the hospital, with partners in the immediate community, industry
and the international scientific world.
The Research Institute laboratories allow clinicians and
basic scientists to mesh the exciting discoveries of the laboratory
with the Children's Hospital patient care programs.
The Research Institute has
its own Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.
There are 4 Sub-Committees in the Institute: the
Science Sub-Committee, the
Membership Sub-Committee, the
Space Sub-Committee and the
Finance Sub-Committee. We also work directly with the
Research Ethics Board, which reports directly to the
Vice President of Research/Director, CHEO Research
Institute, and the Board of Trustees through the Hospital
Chief Executive Officer.
