Two organizations have ranked Hamilton Health Sciences as one of Canada’s leading research hospitals.
The hospital scored a first place national ranking from SCImago - a European company that issues the Worldwide Ranking of Research Institutions.
It placed HHS seventh in the world.
In addition, a Calgary-based research and develop company called RE$SEARCH Infosource Inc. ranked HHS second in Canada behind Toronto’s University Health Network.
“We’re very pleased, but not at all surprised, by the high ranking of our largest academic hospital partner, Hamilton Health Sciences,” says Dr. Steve Collins McMaster University’s associate dean research in the faculty of health sciences in a statement. SCImago uses large databases to analyze indicators such as output of scientific papers, international collaboration and how often research is cited by other scientists. It ranked 3,042 institutions worldwide.
“Hamilton Health Sciences is committed to advancing research and we are very proud of what our scientists and investigators have accomplished,” said CEO Murray Martin in a statement. “It’s a vital contribution that hospitals should make to enhancing patient care for this generation and generations to come.”
