Continuous Effort Leads to Change
Persistent effort drives progress, fostering growth and transformative change
Without our ongoing initiatives, we would not achieve breakthroughs. Continuous efforts and sustained commitment are essential for driving innovation, making significant progress, and reaching groundbreaking discoveries and advancements.

Ongoing Projects
GPS Clinic Research Program
When you join the clinic, you will be asked if you are interested in joining the paralleled research platform. You will be provided with information about the project, a consent form and, if you agree, you'll receive email surveys every few months. This will help us better understand how the service impacts people's health in the long term.
BRCA Previvor Study
In partnership with Ovarian Cancer Canada, we are studying how to better provide care and prevention to healthy BRCA carriers without cancer. We are conducting interviews with patients who have been working with our team through both the pre-op decision-making and post-operative care before and after risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy.
The SOROCk Trial is a clinical trial available to a particular group of individuals with inherited BRCA1 mutations. For these pre-menopausal individuals, the study is testing whether removal of just the fallopian tubes, with the plan to remove the ovaries at a later time, can reduce the risk of ovarian cancer to the same degree as the usual standard of care of removing both the ovaries and fallopian tubes.
CHARM Study
cfDNA in Hereditary And High-Risk Malignancies (CHARM) is a research initiative that collects longitudinal plasma samples, tumour tissue, genomic/epigenomic data, and clinical data on individuals with a hereditary cancer syndrome, regardless of personal cancer history.
Culture and Inheritance in Women's Health
A study of South Asian patient beliefs and needs regarding Hereditary Cancer Risk.
Hereditary Cancer Syndrome Indirect Impact Study
This is a short survey that looks at the experiences of individuals who have a hereditary (passed down from a biological family member) cancer risk, and would like to help shed light on hereditary cancer syndromes.
