Congratulations to Daniel Saucier, postdoctoral fellow at the Centre de formation médicale du Nouveau-Brunswick, recipient of the Mitacs Elevate Fellowship. His research project investigates the impact of an in-hospital mobilization program on frailty in patients with cardiovascular disease. In collaboration with a kinesiologist, the study aims to determine whether simple interventions can improve overall health, shorten hospital stays, and prevent readmissions. This partnership between academia and industry, made possible by Mitacs, highlights the power of applied research to transform healthcare. Daniel is working under the supervision of Professor Myles O’Brien, also from the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at the Université de Sherbrooke.
A MITACS Fellowship for Daniel Saucier and his postdoctoral project on patient frailty and mobilization in hospital settings.
