Personalized Medical Care

Personalized medicine, or precision medicine, will be central to a robust and efficient health care system in the future. Professor Shirley Tang’s research in the area of Smart and Functional Materials will help lead to a more personalized medical system.

According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information, total health care spending in Canada reached $242 billion in 2017. This represents 11.5 percent of Canada’s gross domestic product. Over the coming decades the Canadian healthcare system will change.

Adventures with Chiral Induced Spin Selectivity

Abstract

WIN member Emmanuel Ho, an associate professor at the University of Waterloo School of Pharmacy and an international expert in nanomedicine, is developing a 3D-printed intra-vaginal ring (IVR) that would provide highly precise doses of medication to protect women from getting HIV, the virus that causes AIDS and kills one million people globally each year, according to UNAIDS.
