Contexte additionnel : We are assembling a team to focus on improving pre-acute care for people who experience acute cardiac events that lead to ICU admission, and improving post-acute care. We aim to explore ways to improve pre-acute care and improve post-acute care. We leverage our past work using AI in primary care, our strong focus on health equity and social determinants, and our access to data.

Asthma Canada is committed to advancing research toward a future without asthma by accelerating asthma research by focusing on the following key themes:

1. The Impact of Social and Environmental Factors on People Living with Asthma
2. Understanding the Causes, Diagnosis, Prevention, and Comorbidities of Asthma
3. Advancing Treatments and Symptom Management for Asthma.

Our Research Commitments

• Empower individuals with lived experience with asthma to actively participate in research.
• Increase research funding to strengthen our partnership with the asthma research community.
• Expand our understanding of asthma across the lifespan, addressing its complex causes, management, and the impact of environmental, social, and other health determinants.
• Ensure that knowledge translation is a mandatory component of all funded research projects.

I am seeking to build a collaborative cardiovascular innovation network that connects electrophysiologists, cardiologists working in digital cardiovascular care and remote monitoring, researchers, and physician entrepreneurs.

The challenges I am most interested in addressing include earlier identification of cardiovascular risk, stronger follow-up for complex patients, more effective remote monitoring, and reducing avoidable acute care use. I would like to establish partnerships that support translational research, pilot programs, and practical innovation initiatives.

Technology is no longer peripheral to clinical research—it is embedded within the protocol itself. It enables continuous data capture, real-world follow-up, and sustained patient engagement beyond the study site, fundamentally reshaping how trials are designed and executed. As a result, digital health and remote monitoring expertise are no longer optional. Research teams must include leaders who understand how to operationalize technology within protocols to ensure data quality, patient adherence, and scalable execution.

Interested in establishing linkages with clinical researchers, health systems, and academic partners who are seeking to do more with constrained resources by embedding technology into trial design from the outset.

Our focus is on partnering early—at the protocol development stage—to ensure that best practices in remote data capture, patient engagement, and virtual follow-up are built directly into the study, rather than added later. This includes collaboration with investigators, methodologists, and digital health experts to design protocols that are both scientifically rigorous and operationally scalable.

The challenge we see across acute care research is increasing complexity and cost, combined with limited capacity for in-person follow-up. We are particularly interested in collaborations that address these pressures by leveraging technology to improve data continuity, patient adherence, and efficiency without increasing burden on clinical teams.

Desired partnerships would bring together clinical KOLs, trialists, digital health experts, and health system operators to co-develop next-generation research models—where continuous, real-world data and remote interactions are integral to the protocol.

The outcome we seek is a more cost-effective, patient-centered, and scalable approach to acute care research, where technology enables higher quality data and broader participation while helping research teams extend their reach without proportionally increasing resources.

As a biomedical researcher, I am interested in investigating the deficient molecular mechanisms in the airways of people living with diseases such as cystic fibrosis or COPD. This will help to identify the molecular factor(s) responsible for the deficiency in cellular responses to inflammatory triggers or inability to eradicate infections. The goal is to then restore the responsible factor(s) alongside using modulator therapies to reestablish homeostatic responses.

Coeur

Contexte : I am an early-career cardiac nurse researcher with expertise in qualitative and mixed methods. My program of research aims to improve patient and family experiences with transitions in cardiovascular care across the lifespan, with a focus on enhancing patient autonomy and self-management using technology. Transitions that I work on include transitions across health systems (e.g., pediatric to adult care), transitions across settings (e.g., hospital to home/community), transitions in care (e.g., peri-operative transitions) as well as transitions in disease state (e.g., active management to symptom management). I would be happy to engage with teams that are looking to incorporate a patient-oriented research approach or qualitative health research methodology into their projects.

The primary aim of our project is to identify and describe barriers to and facilitators for the evaluation and management of sleep disordered breathing (SDB) in hospitalized adults with complex comorbidities (cardio, and cerebravascular as well as pulmonary), from the perspectives of both patients and health care professionals involved in SDB diagnosis/treatment during hospitalization (physicians, nurses, respiratory therapists, and sleep technologists). As a secondary aim, we aim to explore changes in patient-reported sleep-related quality of life following inpatient sleep testing (PSG or HSAT) and, when applicable, the initiation of therapy, thereby providing contextual evidence to inform future cost-effectiveness and implementation analyses.

We are interested in collaborating on overlapping projects, potentially as a substudy within the larger umbrella project.

Contexte additionnel : I specialize in AI and computational biology for precision medicine. My research focuses on developing graph-based models for analyzing circulating biomarkers (cfDNA) to enable early detection and treatment monitoring in circulatory diseases and lung health.

1. Adapt NGS analysis pipelines, including LLM-powered agentic systems, for automated and scalable genomic interpretation in acute care settings
2. Apply graph-based models to capture complex relationships between multi-omic biomarkers and clinical phenotypes, particularly in circulatory and respiratory health
3. Validate computational methods using real-world clinical data and workflows Expected Outcomes These collaborations aim to move beyond theoretical performance toward clinically validated, AI-driven tools that deliver actionable insights in real time, improving the speed and accuracy of diagnosis in pre-acute and acute care settings.

Contexte additionnel : HBDI focuses on the human and caregiver experience surrounding acute and post-acute care, particularly the transition from hospital or rehabilitation to home and community. Areas of interest include caregiver preparedness, discharge planning, continuity of support, health-system navigation, identity and emotional adjustment, rural access, and gaps experienced after life-changing diagnoses or injuries. Our work is cross-diagnosis, with particular experience and interest in ABI/TBI and neurological injury.
