We are thrilled to share that Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital is at the forefront of a transformative national initiative, the?Canadian Precision Health Initiative (CPHI), aimed at revolutionizing care for children and youth with neurodevelopmental conditions, mental health challenges, and brain injuries. Holland Bloorview is partnering with leading institutions, including the CHEO Research Institute to integrate genetic data with clinical and environmental information. This initiative will: ??Advance?personalized treatments?and interventions. ????Enable?proactive and preventative care?strategies. ??Ensure?equitable access?to genomic innovations across diverse communities. TRANSCENDENT at CHEO Research Institute is honoured to be part of this important and exciting work, driving the future of precision health forward.?? ??Read more here:?https://lnkd.in/gbTza4cy ?
Holland Bloorview Kids Rehabilitation Hospital is amongst an elite group of health care organizations across the country that will form the Canadian Precision Health Initiative (CPHI). Today, Genome Canada announced an $80 million investment in precision health to transform health care in Canada by unlocking genome sequencing data for more personalized, preventative, and cost-effective care. Through this investment, Holland Bloorview will build the largest Canadian transdiagnostic sequencing effort in pediatric neurodevelopmental conditions, mental health and brain injury. These efforts will transform genome science as a tool for equitable access to innovation and will democratize knowledge on genetic differences underlying neurodiversity, brain injury and mental health to support personalized health solutions for all. This first of its kind cohort brings together expert scientists, clinicians, and people with lived experience, partnering with CHEO, The Hospital for Sick Children, University Health Network, Children's Healthcare Canada, Ontario Brain Institute, CAMH, The Royal Mental Health Centre, McMaster Children’s Hospital, Hamilton Health Sciences, McMaster University, London Health Sciences Centre (LHSC), Queen's University, Grandview Kids To learn more: https://lnkd.in/dmZC-c82
