Fonds de la recherche en santé du Québec (FRSQ) and Montréal InVivo
To Ensure that Quebec gets the most out of Personalized Healthcare
Québec’s personalized health care (PHC) strategy is a mobilizing initiative that was introduced in 2010 by the province’s life sciences and health technologies (LSHT) sector. It is an exceedingly promising project for Québecers, Québec’s LSHT sector and the Québec government.
PHC will constitute a significant paradigm shift in the advancement of the practice of medicine and health care. It is based on greater knowledge of individuals and their genetic and physiological profiles as well as their environments, socio-economic statuses, behaviours and medical histories to determine tailored therapeutic and preventive solutions.
This initiative is especially significant since it comes at a time when the private LSHT sector is drawing on new development models that are increasingly focused on partnerships and the externalization of the investigative process. The implementation of the strategy will therefore prove to be a major asset for Québec.
