Personalized care is the future of health treatment and research. Integrating health and genomic data is the key to unlocking this potential. The UbiLab and the Waterloo Health Information Systems and Technology Lab (WHISTL), in partnership with Roche Canada, are developing the Canadian Personalized Healthcare Innovation Network (CPHIN). In partnership with their physicians, CPHIN integrated data network will help patients tailor their own health decisions.

Real-World Evidence (RWE) is data derived from numerous data sources, measuring both objective and subjective outcomes from the patient's home environment, clinical settings and workplace. Such data is captured and stored in different systems and formats, limiting their integration and subsequent use and analysis.

CPHIN is a network of health and data experts who make data accessible to researchers and physicians. Our vision is to improve patient care by integrating and leveraging health data to power better decisions in every facet of healthcare.
