As the only tertiary care hospital in Southeastern Ontario, and the principal
acute care teaching hospital associated with Queen's University Medical School,
KGH has a proud tradition of excellence in healthcare research. Our activities
cover the spectrum from investigations in basic science to clinical and health services
research.
Our programs in computer-assisted orthopedic surgery, hemophilia, trauma,
amyloid and Alzheimer disease, sexual dysfunction and prostate disorders, and
reproductive research, have brought international recognition to the
hospital.
In our newly established Clinical Research Centre we have brought together our
health services researchers in critical care studies, end of life and quality
of life studies, trauma, asthma and neonatology, all of which are
nationally and internationally competitively funded. The Centre serves as a
resource for data based clinical research throughout the hospital, providing
methodological and biostatistical services for researchers. Other funded
centres include the CFI-funded Gastrointestinal Diseases Research Unit (GIDRU), the
Human Mobility Research Centre (HMRC) and the Centre for Applied Urological Research (CAUR).
 The
KGH research development office has a close relationship with our partners at
Queen's University and the Hotel Dieu Hospital and Providence Care, with whom we share common policies and procedures. Almost all of our
researchers are faculty members of the university, and the strategic directions
of the hospital and the university reflect each other's strengths.
The Vice President of Research Development at KGH is also the Associate Dean
(Research), Faculty of Health Sciences at Queen's University, and Director of
Research at Hotel Dieu Hospital. The hospital has at present approximately
50,000 sq. feet of research space, including the new Gastro Intestinal Diseases
Research Unit (GIDRU) funded by the Canadian Foundation for Innovation (CFI).
Researchers at KGH currently receive approximately 18 million dollars in
external funding from national and international agencies, as well as through
clinical trials.
