In addition to supporting today's research, Dalhousie Medical Research Foundation is committed to fostering the medical research, and healthy communities, of tomorrow. That's why the Foundation sponsors MegaSearch, an award-winning curriculum supplement used by grade five teachers and students across the Maritimes, in both English and French.
Colourful and engaging, MegaSearch is designed to stimulate children's interest in medical research as a career. At the same time, it provides them with information and reinforcement about lifestyle choices they can make today for a healthier future.
