Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences

The Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences (ICES) is a research organization that analyzes healthcare data to improve medical care and health policies. They collect and study information from hospitals, clinics, and government sources to identify trends, evaluate treatments, and support evidence-based decision-making. By doing this, ICES helps healthcare providers, policymakers, and the public understand what works best, ultimately aiming to enhance patient outcomes and the efficiency of healthcare systems. It operates primarily in Canada, particularly in Ontario, with a focus on translating data into actionable insights for better health services.
