\nWHY SUPPORT <\/span>EPICORE?\n<\/span><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Our group was founded<\/h3>\t\t\t

\nOur group is called EPICORE. We are a group of researchers that help other researchers to put their research projects into action. EPICORE is part of the Department of Medicine at the University of Alberta, and is a not for profit research centre that is not funded by the University. Our mission is to improve health through innovative research \u2013 not just ours, but the research of others. Unlike other research groups, which are closed, we are open to any researcher. We feel that this philosophy promotes a greater community of researchers and is more efficient.\n<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Health research dilemma<\/h3>\t\t\t

\nThe biggest dilemma in supporting health research is how to decide what to support. Should it be multiple sclerosis, or heart disease, or stroke, or children's health? They are all worthy causes.\n<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

SOLUTION?<\/h3>\t\t\t

\nOur approach is unique. And it allows you to support all of these causes.\n<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

We have the tools<\/h3>\t\t\t

\nNo matter what kind of research, researchers need tools to do their work. Tools like advanced research methods, ways to collect and store data, and ways to analyze data. EPICORE provides those tools. In providing those tools, we can support a wide variety of research. (and, it\u2019s more efficient than each researcher developing these on his\/her own).\n<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Support us = Support research<\/h3>\t\t\t

\nIn supporting our centre, you can support dozens of researchers rather than a single research project. We have no fundraising infrastructure, so 100% of donations go towards research.\n<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div>
