Participate in Research
Be a part of creating new knowledge and improving care
The Bruyère Health Research Institute conducts life changing research connected with Bruyère Health's clinical priorities that directly impacts and improves people’s health and care. We are transforming care each day thanks to the many people who choose to be a part of research.
You can be a part of life changing research too!
Over the years, thousands of people in the Bruyère Health community have participated in research studies conducted by the Research Institute. Being a part of research might mean participating in interviews or focus groups, testing new drugs or technologies, or simply staying connected with us through your or your loved one’s care journey.
Your contribution to research is building better health care practices and treatment for all Canadians.
Open call to join our registry (including healthy older adults):
Anyone interested in being a part of research can contact the Memory Research Recruitment Registry (MRRR) to join the registry. Many studies need to look at both people who are healthy and who are living with cognitive impairment.
Our registry helps to match potential participants with ongoing and upcoming studies being run at Bruyère Health.
How do I join?
Contact the MRRR and ask to be added to the registry. A member of our team will ask you a few questions to help determine which studies you may be eligible for. This information is kept in a secure file at Bruyère Health and can only be accessed by authorized MRRR staff to connect studies with prospective participants.
When a study becomes available that fits your responses, our recruitment team will reach out to see if you would like to participate. Whether you would like to participate in a study or not is up to you, and we only ever contact you for studies that match your profile!
