About Us<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h2>[vc_empty_space height=”24″][vc_column_text]St. Joseph\u2019s Healthcare Hamilton has included Discovery as part of its Mission since the Sisters of St. Joseph\u2019s first established their Hospital in 1890. With the formation of the medical school at McMaster University in the 1960s, the academic research endeavours at St. Joe\u2019s expanded significantly. As the Hospital\u2019s capacity for research grew, the need to establish a research administration team was met through the creation of the Father Sean O\u2019Sullivan Research Centre in 1993.<\/p>\n

More recently, Research St. Joseph’s \u2013 Hamilton<\/em> (RSJH) was conceived as a separate entity that would allow further growth of research at our Hospital. Branded as The Research Institute of St. Joe’s Hamilton<\/strong>, RSJH\u00a0became the official, autonomous administrative body for research at St. Joseph\u2019s Healthcare Hamilton on April 1, 2014.<\/p>\n

As a SR&ED eligible entity for third-party research investors, the newly minted Research Institute was able to pursue previously missed opportunities to directly fund research. Combined with an effective marketing campaign launched in mid-2014, The Research Institute gained prominence and steadily grew the body of research and innovation within St. Joe\u2019s. The Father Sean O\u2019Sullivan Research Centre became one of four original pillars of The Research Institute.\u00a0Today, RSJH operates across five research pillars with an annual budget exceeding $25 million.<\/p>\n

While staying true to its original mandate by providing administrative support to researchers within St. Joseph\u2019s Healthcare Hamilton, The Research Institute has grown to become a fully operational Institute with specialized IT for research, marketing, finance, training, and compliance services. It has helped to build research programs within other hospital systems, including Niagara Health, and works with our McMaster University partners to protect and commercialize intellectual property. Through seminars and events, The Research Institute has also contributed to recognizing the achievements of our researchers, providing continuing education opportunities, and integrating St. Joe\u2019s within Hamilton\u2019s innovative network of health science organizations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content” parallax=”true” parallax_image=”1103″][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”600″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
