CanPath Portal

CanPath is Canada’s largest population health cohort and a national platform for population-level health research.It is a unique Canadian platform allowing scientists to explore the complex factors that contribute to disease. It is a deeply characterized cohort of individuals who have provided broad consent and now include two per cent of all Canadians between 30 and 74 years of age. CanPath can save researchers time — sometimes up to a decade — associated with arranging and measuring their own population samples. Researchers around the world can readily integrate CanPath data into their own studies. The standardization and harmonization of data across CanPath’s regional cohorts has been facilitated by Maelstrom Research.

CanPath 作为加拿大最大的全民健康队列研究，亦是国家级全民健康研究的平台。该平台独具特色，允准科学家们探究导致疾病发生的复杂因素。CanPath 是一个深度特征描述的队列研究，其参与者已广泛授权，目前涵盖了 30 至 74 岁的加拿大公民的百分之二。CanPath 的应用可节省研究人员在安排和测量自身人群样本时所耗费的时间，有时可达十年之久。全球范围内的研究人员可轻松将 CanPath 的数据整合入其研究之中。Maelstrom Research 有助于实现 CanPath 各区域队列研究数据的标准化和一致性。
