Canadian Institutes of Health Research-Institute of Health Services and Policy Research (CIHR-IHSPR), Canadian Health Services Research Foundation (CHSRF) and Centre de santé et de services sociaux de Chicoutimi (CSSSC).

The Research Chair originates from an ongoing collaboration between the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences - Université de Sherbrooke and the CSSS de Chicoutimi since 2007. It was renewed under CIHR’s competition for an Applied Research Chair on Health Services and Policy Research. Its development supports the research mission of Université de Sherbrooke’s Department of Family Medicine.
