As a SUPPORT Unit, MSSU provides research services, expertise and connections to help researchers, people with lived and living experience, health care providers and decision-makers carry out patient-oriented research across the Maritime provinces.
The MSSU is one of 11 SUPPORT Units that form part of Canada’s Strategy for Patient-Oriented Research (SPOR), serving the provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
MSSU is a distributed team that works within partner organizations across five locations in the Maritime provinces. This model allows us to stay closely connected to the health system and research community in each region.
