The Emergency Medicine Researchers of Niagara (EMRoN) program is an evolving research incubator with the Niagara Regional Campus (NRC) of McMaster University’s Michael G DeGroote School of Medicine and Niagara Health (NH) that is becoming a productive research organization aligned with the strategic priorities of its partner organizations (NRC and NH). EMRoN is committed to advancing local community health care standards and sharing best practices with provincial and national peers. In its first two years of operation EMRoN has achieved success in new structures, processes and outcomes that position it well to be a fulsome research organization for years to come.
