At the SPOR Evidence Alliance, we value the importance of patient identified priorities in shaping the health research landscape, and ultimately informing changes across the health system that address patient needs.
If you are interested in a health topic that you feel is important in improving patient health outcomes and the health system, we would like to hear about it.
Who can submit a health topic?
We welcome all interested patients and members of the public to propose topics for future SPOR Evidence Alliance projects.
What topics are appropriate?
We would like to hear about health topics that identify an opportunity to improve health outcomes, medical or public health practice, and health systems in Canada.
Please note that it is not necessary to submit your topic as a structured research question. If your topic is selected for further study, we will work with you to develop the question.
What happens after a topic is submitted?
Once you submit your topic, the SPOR Evidence Alliance will assess your submission using the following criteria:
Impact (clinical, economic, population)
Unmet need and knowledge gap
Timeliness and importance of addressing the information gap
Uniqueness of the topic, to ensure we do not duplicate existing or ongoing research
Appropriateness of the topic for knowledge synthesis, guideline development or knowledge translation
When to submit a topic?
You may submit a topic at any time. However, the SPOR Evidence Alliance launches an official call for topics once a year and compiles all topics collected to date for an annual priority setting of topics. Only topics ranked as high priority, by a panel of patient/public partners, health care providers, policy makers and researchers, are fully funded for further study. We will notify you on the status of your topic submission once the prioritization is completed.
2023 Patient and Public Health Research Topic Priority-Setting Exercise
The SPOR Evidence Alliance is happy to announce the successful completion of the 2023 Patient and Public Health Research Topic Priority-Setting exercise. This marks an important milestone in our commitment to engaging patients and the public in shaping health research landscape in Canada.
An impressive 15-member steering panel comprising of patients and public members alongside health system decision-makers with diverse knowledge and experiences ranked and deliberated on 63 unique topics(87 submissions) submitted by patients and public members from across Canada. To ensure rigour and systematic selection process, we employed a modified James Lind Alliance Priority-Setting Partnerships approach in identifying the 20 highest priority topics to be funded by the SPOR Evidence Alliance.
Each topic was prioritized based on the following key factors:
Impact: We evaluated each topic’s clinical, economic, and population-related effects, to prioritize research areas with highest potential for value-add to the Canadian health system.
Unmet Need and Evidence Gap: We assessed the extent to which each topic addressed existing gaps in knowledge and potential areas for advancement.
Uniqueness: We considered each topic based on the current health research landscape to avoid duplicating existing or ongoing research efforts and ensuring that the selected topics will uncover new knowledge.
Timeliness and Importance: With emphasis on current health system landscape, we prioritized topics that address urgent or emerging healthcare challenges.
Read more about the top 20 health research topics below (listed in alphabetical order). These carefully chosen topics are aimed at addressing current and pressing healthcare and health system gaps, aligning with our mission to prioritize issues of utmost importance to the community. Each funded research project will be co-led by patients and members of the public, working hand in hand with a dedicated SPOR Evidence Alliance research team. We hope this will ensure that research outcomes are both scientifically robust and reflect patient experiences and perspectives.
