Research

The Canadian Partnership for Tomorrow's Health (CanPath) is Canada's largest population health study and has undertaken vital work over the last ten years to understand how lifestyle, behavior, genetics and the environment interact and lead to disease. The national cohort brings together six regional cohorts: BC Generations Project, Alberta's Tomorrow Project, Manitoba Tomorrow Project, Ontario Health Study (OHS), CARTaGENE (Quebec), and the Atlantic Partnership for Tomorrow's Health which, cumulatively, have enrolled over 330,000 Canadians ages 30 to 74. In addition to capturing health and lifestyle information, participants have contributed biological samples (blood, urine, and toenail). Participants are followed longitudinally to capture changes in their health outcomes with the intent of following participants for up to 50 years. CanPath is hosted by the University of Toronto's Dalla Lana School of Public Health with national funding from the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer. The Ontario Institute for Cancer Research (OICR) hosts CanPath data in a safe and secure environment.
