(photos by Lou - Ann Hope) Ontario health research gets $7 million roost Health research in Ontario is getting a $7 -million boost, Health Minister Murray Elston announced recently. The province's five health sciences cen- tres will receive $3.5 -million to buy new research equipment and another $3.5 -million to support career scientists. Mr. Elston said the health sciences cen- tres need new equipment for ' clinical research to- keep pace with rapid technological change, and that money allocated for this purpose has been" divided' according to the volume of research at each centre. The centres will determine their local priority needs for'equipment, 'Career scientists are researchers working on indepedent projects in clinical or com- munity health research .There are 66 career scientists already funded by the ministry, and the additional funding could result in up to 14 new appointrnents throughout the - province. The new money to the health sciences cen- tres is awvarded as follows: University of Ot- tawa and Queens University, $1 -million each; McMaster University, $1.4 -million; University of Western Ontario, $1.5 -million; and Uni rsity of Toronto, $2.1. -million. SPeakidg to an alumni group at Western, Mr.' Elston also announced $5.3 -million, for 82 individual .research ,grants for new and continuing research projects in Hamilton, Kingston, London, Ottawa, Penetanguishene, Toronto and Waterloo. • The 82 , research grants emphasize research on women's health, care of the elderly, and ways to stop smoking. Fourteen grants totalling $472,392 are directed toward women's health care. Among the women's projects is a Univer- sity of Ottawa survey to discover if ,childbearing women using obstetrical ser- vices would be interested in homebirth, a birthing entre, and midwifery services. The results will be useful to health care • planners. A project at McMaster University •will. study how effective steroid drug therapy is for'women with lupus, a chronic degenerative disease affecting major organs in the body. A new smoking. research project at McMaster will compare three strategies for family physicians to use in counselling their patients to stop smoking, A new project at the University of • Western Ontario win examine institu- tionalized elderly to discover if they can derive any therapeutic benefit, from tape recording their life histories. The resear- chers believe the participants) self-esteem and satisfactionwith life can be enhanced. • Also at Western, a cardiorespiratory test° 'for people age 55 to 85 will time them walk- ing at different speeds.. The. project is ex- pected to Provide a quick and straightfor- ward' means of measuring fitness levels in those taking part in exercise programs.' "Improvements ;) the quality of"health care available to Ontarians-'depend on the strides we can make in clinical and com- munity health research. The money I am announcing today reflects the Ontario government's commitment to maintaining the basic framework essential for this im- • portant endeavor," Mr. Elston said. • The projects were recommended for fun- ding. by the health care systems research review committee, an external advisory body of health research professionals from ' across the province. The , committee is chaired by Dr. Ian McDowell of the depart= ment of epidemiology and community medicine at the University of Ottawa.
