Hamilton Health Sciences

We are deeply committed to ensuring that everyone in the communities we serve has equitable access to timely, high-quality health care. That’s why our research and innovation team has partnered with our equity, diversity and inclusion team to create a new role, for an embedded (hospital-based) scientist specializing in health equity research.

Dr. Fatima Sheikh’s role as a health equity scientist covers our entire organization, and her research could also help other hospitals and health systems provincially and nationally provide more equitable care. https://www.hamiltonhealthsciences.ca/share/hhs-invests-in-research-dedicated-to-improving-equitable-care-system-wide/

We’re excited to share our 2025–26 Research & Innovation Report!

As a top five Canadian research hospital and a leading academic health sciences centre, we're always working to improve care and support the next generation of researchers and innovators. From groundbreaking discoveries to real-world solutions, our teams are moving health care forward, here in Hamilton and beyond.
