Update and early findings from TRANSFORMATION: Patient PHC experience in NS, BC and ON
The TRANSFORMATION Study aims to improve both the science of primary care performance measurement and the ways those results are reported to practitioners, decision-makers, and the public to encourage improvement within the system.
Research Using the EMR
If your EMR could talk back to you, what would you ask?
We want to involve you, as team members, in Primary Care Research! The Maritime Family Practice Research Network (MarNet-FP) holds data from sentinel physicians and nurse practitioners from both urban and rural environments. This electronic medical record (EMR) information can be used for research. This session is designed to introduce clinical users of the EMR to BRIC NS.

Fall Project Incubator Working Groups
The time has come to start preparing for the 2017 PIHCI funding competitions. We are anticipating that the next round of PIHCI funding opportunities will be announced in spring 2017 including Knowledge Synthesis, Comparative Program and Policy Analysis, and Multi-Year grants.
To kick things off, we are holding a Project Incubator on November 18 to bring together groups of researchers and to move forward with project ideas. We are allowing enough time in this meeting to create working documents.
