[edit] About CRaNHR
Established in 1992, the research centre was formerly known as the Northern Health Human Resources Research Unit (NHHRRU). In 1997, it has adopted a new name: the Centre for Rural and Northern Health Research (CRaNHR).
CRaNHR researchers conduct research on rural health with the goal to improve health services, access to health care, especially in rural and northern areas, and to better understand the health care system.
