CHHM aims to prevent falls <strong>and</strong> hip fractures through early intervention with programs for youths <strong>and</strong> seniors, educate <strong>and</strong> train skilled<br />
scientists <strong>and</strong> clinicians, detect osteoarthritis at an early stage, treat bone <strong>and</strong> joint problems with more effective surgical solutions, including<br />
minimally invasive surgeries, evaluate the impact, effectiveness <strong>and</strong> costs of novel interventions, translate research that is relevant,<br />
effective <strong>and</strong> sustainable into programs, practices <strong>and</strong> policies through knowledge integration.<br />
CHHM brings together researchers from a wide range of disciplines to investigate <strong>and</strong> treat hip fractures <strong>and</strong> osteoarthritis, <strong>and</strong> create<br />
new surgical solutions<br />
CHHM integrated research program focuses on four key areas:<br />
• Hip Fracture Prevention.<br />

• Knowledge Translation<br />
DDSC trains undergraduate medical students to have a grounding <strong>and</strong> basic training in Dermatology through the Undergraduate Program,<br />
while graduate medical students are trained to become fully licensed Dermatologists in our Postgraduate Program for residents.<br />
DDSC Research involves research through the <strong>Clinical</strong> <strong>Trials</strong> Unit <strong>and</strong> our five specialized laboratories:<br />
• Skin Cancer Biology Laboratory<br />
• Photomedicine <strong>and</strong> Optics Laboratory<br />
• Hair Research Laboratory<br />
• Immunodermatology Laboratory<br />
• Laboratory of Predictive Medicine <strong>and</strong> Therapeutics<br />
By analyzing the needs of the community, DDSC design research projects to address those needs. The output of DDSC research is new<br />
knowledge, new drugs, new techniques, new patents, <strong>and</strong> more – DDSC take this information back to our clinical settings to help <strong>and</strong><br />
treat out patients.<br />
