Global and national collaborations

At The Ottawa Hospital, we’ve pushed the boundaries of healthcare and research to earn recognition as one of the top research hospitals in Canada. In the last three years alone, our researchers have been actively involved in nearly 6,000 collaborative projects with partners in every Canadian province and territory and 151 countries. With your help, we’re bringing life-changing research and care to patients not just in Ottawa but across Canada and around the world.
