What is POPCORN?
POPCORN brings together researchers, clinicians, and patient partners to form a pan-Canadian pediatric research platform and answer important questions in child health. While created in response to COVID-19, the platform will provide the infrastructure to prepare for future pandemics or any child health issues of importance.
Leadership
The POPCORN platform is made up of the leaders of 4 national research networks, and supported by a coordinating centre along with teams of experts on how to collect, share, and analyze data across projects, and pediatric hospitals. Patient partners and decision-makers are also members of the leadership team to ensure the voices of knowledge users are included, and patients and families are involved in planning and implementing research studies.
