The Cause

The Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute (LTRI) is a world-class academic health sciences centre and one of the country’s top research institutes.

We are looking forward to another incredibly successful day.

Diabetes
The LTRI ranks #1 in the world for high-impact diabetes research among best-in-class hospital peers and is home to some of the top diabetes researchers in the world.

Brain Health
Research at the LTRI has revolutionized our approach to understanding how memories are formed, retained and lost. This work has contributed to a medication that temporarily slows down the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.

Cancer
More than 40 per cent of the research done at the LTRI is cancer-related, and it ranks among the top three centres for sarcoma research in the world.

Women’s & Infants’ Health
The LTRI has one of the world’s largest concentrations of scientists studying women’s and infants’ health and is known for its world-renowned research programs in neonatal medicine, placental health, and maternal/fetal medicine.

Arthritis and Autoimmune Diseases
The Centre of Excellence in Precision Medicine for Arthritis and Autoimmune Disease is harnessing emerging technology and research in precision medicine to provide more personalized care for our patients.

Patient Experience
Research at the Bridgepoint Collaboratory, part of the LTRI, is focused on quality and health system performance through the eyes of complex patients and their caregivers, with the goal of creating approaches to care that is more person-centred.
