About Us
London Health Sciences Centre Research Institute (LHSCRI) brings together some of the most brilliant minds to transform patient care through research.
As the research institute of London Health Sciences Centre (LHSC), one of Canada’s largest research-intensive acute care teaching hospitals, our teams conduct research where patient care is delivered, working alongside patients, families, health-care providers, and academic partners like Western University. The diversity of care delivered at LHSC translates to a multifaceted research and innovation program, ranging from laboratory-based science to clinical trials. We are leaders in advancing the understanding, diagnosis, treatment and management of diseases and health conditions that align directly to LHSC’s care programs and clinical expertise.
LHSCRI is also home to Children’s Health Research Institute – one of Ontario’s only hospital-based children’s research institutes – focused on preventing and treating diseases affecting babies, children and youth, helping them lead happy, healthy lives.
Our research has global impact. We build on LHSC’s 150-year legacy of health innovation and partner with research institutes around the globe to drive forward medical breakthroughs that make a difference in the lives of patients and their families.
