Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute (“CHEO RI”) is the research arm of the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario - Ottawa Children’s Treatment Centre (“CHEO”) and an affiliated institute of the University of Ottawa. We acknowledge that Ottawa is built on un-ceded Algonquin Anishinabek territory. The peoples of the Algonquin Anishinabek Nation have lived on this territory for millennia and we honour them and this land. CHEO is a beloved institution and workplace that is widely recognized for being an anchor in our community. CHEO RI works to create new knowledge and evidence to support CHEO in its provision of world-class care to our children. Our mission at CHEORI is to connect exceptional talent and technology in pursuit of life-changing research for every child, youth, and family in our community and beyond.

CHEO RI has an immediate requirement for a Postdoctoral Fellow.

The CHEO Research Institute is fully integrated within the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Ottawa, which comprises several research-intensive Departments supporting a vibrant research and educational environment with multiple strong foci in multiple health-related fields. Several health-related students and medical trainees complete portions of their education and training at CHEO.

The Electronic Health Information Laboratory (EHIL) was formed in 2004 at the CHEO Research Institute and is headed up by Dr. Khaled El Emam. EHIL conducts multi-disciplinary research to enable data sharing for secondary purposes and data-driven simulation. It is located at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute. Our research results get applied in practice relatively quickly, so we get rapid feedback from practice to continue improving our work.
