Help Jess raise money

I'm running to support practice changing research for mental health at The Ottawa Hospital through the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute (OHRI).

I arrived here in August 2020 with a vision to develop and engage in interdisciplinary, team-based research with real potential to improve the care we provide.  Last year our team raised 20K, which after a competition funded a research project led by Marco Solmi, M.D., Ph.D. to fund mental health research surrounding the pandemic.  Information about that project can be found at: https://www.coh-fit.com/project-leads/  This year, we hope to raise 10K to support another project.  To help us select projects likely to change practice, we have created a three-person committee of a patient advocate, a family advocate and a clinician to determine how these funds are spent with input from the OHRI Methods Centre.  Ninety percent of proceeds will fund clinical research in our department.
