Osler Research Institute for Health Innovation
William Osler Health System (Osler) is paving a bold new path for research by establishing the Osler Research Institute for Health Innovation (ORIHI) and laying out an ambitious strategy for the future. ORIHI builds on over a decade of valuable health services research led by clinicians focused on solving front-line challenges through research. ORIHI unites Osler’s research and innovation into a collaborative ecosystem where researchers, innovators and scholars work together to create real-world solutions that improve patient care and health outcomes.
Our research pillars
Informed by the needs of our community and driven by research expertise, the Osler Research Institute for Health Innovation (ORIHI) will generate meaningful local and global impact in patient care.
Our three research pillars are:
| Population health | Personalized health | Health systems |
|---|---|---|
| Understanding, researching and addressing the health needs of our diverse population. | Tailoring health care interventions to individual characteristics, such as genetics, lifestyle, preferences and environmental factors, to improve health. | Studying and optimizing the structures and processes of our healthcare systems to ensure they are efficient, equitable, and people-centered. |
Join us on this journey
ORIHI is about to embark on a transformative journey, dedicated to advancing patient-centered health care through cutting-edge research. With your invaluable support, we aim to make a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals and communities, both locally and globally.
We’re also excited to explore potential projects and pilot initiatives in the med-tech and innovation sectors.
