With a mission to support novel approaches to managing and preventing heart failure, the Ted Rogers Centre for Heart Research uses its Innovation Fund to propel emerging research with great potential. The 2024-25 Innovation Fund Seed Grants are currently open and you...
Programs & Initiatives
Our multidisciplinary teams work in tandem to target the factors that contribute to heart failure, innovations that drive person-centred medicine, avenues to deliver quality care everywhere, and commercialization of new technology.
Investigating Heart Failure
Translational Biology and Engineering Program (TBEP)
This world-class centre for discovery and innovation blends engineering and medicine. Here, diverse teams decipher the genetic, molecular, and cellular mechanisms that underpin heart failure and regeneration. Learn more
Biobanks
Driven by patients and families willing to support research, our two funded biobanks are rich repositories through which investigators can achieve promising new studies. Learn more
Personalized Medicine
Cardiac Precision Medicine Program
We seek to unravel the unique genome of every child with heart disease/failure in an effort to deliver precision and timely care, prevent complications, and improve outcomes. Learn more
Cardiac Genome Clinic
Thank you to the 500 families who have participated in our program that investigates the genetic causes of heart failure in fetuses, children and adults. Learn more
Data Science & Machine Learning
Our Centre is driving a trio of advanced data-driven initiatives that are transforming heart failure research and personalized care now and into the future. Learn more
Cardiotoxicity Prevention
Through unique research efforts, innovations, and expert clinical care, we protect patients at risk or experiencing heart complications from cancer therapy. Learn more
Equitable Access to Care
Transform HF
A community of engineers, scientists and clinicians work with Indigenous health experts and patients to develop point-of-care diagnostics, wearables, and AI technologies to keep people with heart failure safe at home. Visit website
Digital Health
To enable equitable access to high-quality heart failure care, we co-create precise, predictive digital health solutions with patients and caregivers. Learn more
Comprehensive Program in Heart Function
Inside Canada’s leading centre of excellence in heart function, we deploy a team-based model of care that bolsters clinical outcomes, patient education, quality of life, research and education. Learn more
Translating Innovation
Translating Innovation
We not only invest in research but are committed to translating discoveries so that they can be used in practice, through a system of patient and caregiver empowerment, knowledge mobilization and commercialization. Learn more
Health System & Technology Evaluation
For new health care technologies in hospital and home environments, we evaluate their usability, effectiveness, ethical and economic impacts, as well as if they meet the needs of patients themselves. Learn more
HF Quality & Outcomes
We integrate quality improvement concepts in all settings to improve care, and pursue world-leading outcomes research designed to reduce hospitalizations and deaths caused by heart failure. Learn more
