Centre for Global Health Research
Ensuring that the remarkable global
progress in health of the 21st century reaches the
world's poorest people requires research as well as
action. The mission of the Centre for Global Health
Research (CGHR), St. Michael's Hospital, University of
Toronto is to conduct high-quality research that
advances global health. Specific emphasis is on
avoidance of two large and growing causes of death
worldwide: HIV-1 and tobacco.
The CGHR was established in 2003 to conduct large
scale epidemiological studies in developing countries.
The CGHR is co-sponsored by St. Michael's Hospital and
the University of Toronto. It has offices in Toronto,
New Delhi, Bangalore and Chandigarh. CGHR is also
affiliated with the Centre for International Health, the
McLaughlin Centre for Molecular Medicine and other
partners at the University of Toronto.
