Upcoming Events
One of the NS-PIHCI’s goals is to develop and foster innovative primary health care research.  We will be hosting a series of informal “Project Incubator” discussions to encourage the development of research questions and connections between members with similar interests.  The first series continues the conversations begun at the October 8 Information Day:
  • Integrated Care: Addressing the needs of priority populations (Jan. 12)
  • High-system users: Tackling the issues (Jan. 19)
  • Complex needs across the life course: Children and Youth (Jan. 26)
All Project Incubator discussions will occur from 12 - 1 pm by teleconference and in person (8th floor, Abbie J. Lane Building, 5909 Veterans Memorial Lane). Let us know if you plan to attend any of these sessions by emailing nspihci@dal.ca.  

Member Updates

We want to hear from you!  Members are encouraged to inform NS-PIHCI of recent publications, successful grant applications or other activities.  We will highlight these events on the news section of our website.
