CMCC has one of the most innovative chiropractic research programs in North America. The quality and strength of our research is recognized worldwide. It improves the education of tomorrow’s chiropractors and results in more effective delivery of patient care.
Research Agenda
Two Centres of Research Excellence – While CMCC has historically been involved in both clinical and basic science studies, our long term research focus will be on clinical studies. With this in mind, our agenda includes establishing two centres as the foundation for that research – one to study the mechanics of treatment, and the other to study health policy and patient access to treatment. With these two areas as our primary focus, chiropractic research at CMCC will continue to elevate the quality of education and help improve patient care. (more)
Research Chair
Critical to the growth of the profession and our influence on health policy, CMCC will appoint a Research Chair for the new Centre to study mechanics of chiropractic treatment. We are seeking financial support from interested partners, donors and industry.
Research Symposiums
Held February 1, 2008 at the CMCC Campus, the CMCC Research Symposium brought together some of the most brilliant minds in the profession, and highlighted emerging trends in key areas of chiropractic research and patient care.

Partners & Funders
CMCC researchers regularly work together with universities, government and industry to improve chiropractic education, patient health and heath care policy. The division has received grants from a number of sources, including the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the National Institutes of Health in the United States. CMCC faculty and students have also formed collaborative relationships with other academic institutions across North America, conducting innovative research projects with fellow scientists at the University of Alberta, University of Calgary, University of Saskatchewan, University of Toronto and Ryerson University
Research Facilities
CMCC has a number of laboratories on campus to investigate mechanisms underlying health and the prevention and treatment of pain. Collaborative arrangements give select CMCC researchers access to laboratories at universities across Canada.
Research Publications
The CMCC Research Report, published every few years, provides a close-up look at the work of our researchers and the projects taking place at the institution.
