The Keenan Research Centre of the Li Ka Shing Knowledge Institute is home to researchers whose areas of expertise cover a wide variety of disciplines and methodologies. Together they generate knowledge about:

  • The biological mechanisms underlying health and disease.
  • The application of fundamental research to improve the understanding and treatment of human disease.
  • The best methods of preventing disease and providing health care.
  • The social, economic and policy determinants of health.
  • The best methods of partnering with our community to generate policy relevant research and ensuring greater health equity. Researchers at the Keenan Research Centre work closely with educators, clinicians and community members to generate and transfer knowledge that will improve the health of our patients and communities.
