The Human Sciences Hubâ„¢, Canada€™s unique research centre, is now available to support the needs of government, industry, and academia in human performance research, particularly as it relates to public protection, safety and security.
Created by Defence Research and Development Canada, this innovation Hub uses the world-class human experimentation facilities and expertise of the DRDC Toronto research centre. This renowned facility has served the Department of National Defence and Canadian Forces for 65 years, gaining international recognition and acclaim for its research into human performance and the integration of the €œhuman system€? with other systems in challenging and stressful environments.
The Hub provides its partners with the benefits of experience and unmatched facilities Â…and the credibility of objective research conducted at a federal government laboratory. It is a unique, multi-disciplinary human sciences research centre offering its partners access to over 200 scientific and support staff across a broad spectrum of disciplines.
These highly-skilled professionals include behavioural, physiological and biomedical scientists; ergonomists and human factors engineers; life-support systems and medical specialists --- all focused on applying expert knowledge of human capabilities and limitations. It is a unique opportunity, both nationally and internationally, to reap the synergistic benefits of having such a critical mass of applied human sciences expertise literally under one roof.
