Objective
Dream of a Cure Research Program
- To support research focused on improving the health and quality of life of all people with inherited bleeding disorders and finding a cure.
- To provide basic scientific research grants in fields relevant to hemophilia A and B, von Willebrand disease, rare factor deficiencies, platelet function disorders (and platelet pathophysiology) and other congenital and acquired bleeding disorders.
Care until Cure Research Program
- To allow Canadian investigators to conduct research on medical and psychosocial aspects of bleeding disorders, including outcome evaluation
- To support clinical research in fields relevant to improving the quality of life of persons with hemophilia, persons with von Willebrand disease or other inherited bleeding disorders, persons with related conditions such as HIV or hepatitis C, and carriers of an inherited bleeding disorder.
ADVANCE Canada Research Program
To support research that will help inform how management and treatment should best be adapted for people ageing with hemophilia
The research program support studies that aim to:
- Identify and provide insight into key issues associated with the ageing hemophilia population.
- Identify how management of age-related co-morbidities should be adapted to those with hemophilia.
- Create and deliver evidence-based information to health care practitioners (HCPs), the public and policy makers that will lead to improved care and QoL for older Canadians living with hemophilia.
Novo Nordisk Psychosocial Research Program
The Canadian Hemophilia Society – Novo Nordisk Canada Psychosocial Research Program was created to engage professionals/graduate students from the allied health disciplines (ie. Nursing, Physiotherapy & Social Work) in research activities addressed to understanding the psychosocial impact of hemophilia and other inherited bleeding disorders and to improve the quality of life of persons and families whose lives are affected by these disorders.
