BCIRPU is supported by a province-wide partnership between the Developmental Neurosciences and Child Health cluster at the Child and Family Research Institute (CFRI), BC Ministry of Health (MoH), Provincial Health Services Authority (PHSA), BC Children’s Hospital, and University of British Columbia (UBC). This award recognizes the personal achievements and contributions to UBC and to the vision and goals of the University. Our team members were honored to accept this award during a ceremony at the President’s house.
The BC Injury Research and Prevention Unit is a leader in the production and transfer of injury prevention knowledge and the integration of evidence-based injury prevention practices in the daily lives of those at risk, those who care for them, and those with a mandate for public health and safety in British Columbia.
