HSNRI now employs 20 researchers, with plans in place to hire more
Renovations at Greater Sudbury’s medical research facility are on time and on budget, city councillors were told Tuesday.
Dr. Janet E. McElhaney, scientific director at the Health Sciences North Research Institute (HSNRI), said the institute is not only working on research that will improve the lives of northerners, it’s also bringing 20 high-skilled jobs to the city, with the potential for more in the coming years.
“This is going to build capacity for economic development in the health-care sector here in Sudbury,” McElhaney said. “We’re really building something to bring lead researchers to Sudbury.”
