From Faculty leadership

Accelerating research collaboration across TAHSN

Across TAHSN, we are fortunate to have extraordinary research talent and clinical expertise. The 14 TAHSN hospitals affiliated with the University of Toronto range in missions from large community teaching hospitals to some of the most highly specialized academic health science centres in Canada. Unfortunately, when collaboration between organizations gets slowed down by process and paperwork, it can delay the impact of that work. If we want to move ideas into practice more quickly, we need to make it easier for our hospitals to work together. That goal is front and centre at a research collaboration symposium this week.
