During National Volunteer Week, we celebrate the contributions of Canada’s millions of volunteers: their actions, understanding and genuine concern for the world around them. BC Children’s Hospital Research Institute hosts undergraduate student volunteers as part of the INSPIRE program.
BC Children’s Hospital is part of a new cross-Canada network to ensure a coordinated research response to COVID-19. Supported by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), the platform will enhance collaboration and information-sharing between research teams to fully understand the impacts of COVID-19 and improve the health and wellbeing of children and youth.
Faith Carrie doesn’t mince words when asked how these past two years have been. “COVID has definitely been a pain in the butt!!” she exclaims.
