Grants and Contributions

The Project Grant program is expected to:
• Support a diverse portfolio of health-related research and knowledge translation proposals at any stage, from discovery to application, including commercialization;
• Promote relevant collaborations across disciplines, professions, and sectors; and
• Contribute to the creation and use of health-related knowledge

• The CIHR Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Research Initiative, under the leadership of CIHR's Institute of Infection and Immunity (III), supports the development of broader, more cohesive engagement and actions, methods and tools to combat AMR and improve antimicrobial use.
• In alignment with CIHR's commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in the research system, the research initiative champions EDI as a means to support excellence in research, training and knowledge mobilization. Therefore, we encourage people from diverse backgrounds, including groups underrepresented in science such as women and racial and ethnic minorities, to apply.

The CIHR Institute of Cancer Research (CIHR-ICR) has a mandate to support research that reduces the burden of cancer on individuals and families through prevention strategies, screening, diagnosis, effective treatments, psycho-social support systems, and palliation.

This priority announcement (PA) is designed to support research that prevents the onset of cancer (lowers cancer risk) and/or reduces the severity of the disease through early detection when it is at its most treatable.

This PA supports research that creates new knowledge in cancer prevention and early detection and/or moves it into practice in the health system, communities, workplaces, and in the daily lives of Canadians.

Focusing on sex as a biological variable and gender as a social variable, this priority announcement (PA) aims to address research gaps in understanding the health of female athletes in the context of organized sport participation.
This PA is the result of a partnership between the CIHR Institute of Gender and Health (CIHR-IGH) and Sports Canada. For the purpose of this PA, sport is defined as "Activities that develop specific skills, and that are organized around competition and governed by rules" and will contribute to the National Women's Health Research Initiative (NWHRI) which is advancing a coordinated research program that addresses under-researched and high-priority areas of women's health and will ensure new evidence improves women's and gender-diverse people's care and health outcomes. The NWHRI promotes an intersectional lens to research and care to tackle persistent gaps for all women, including for Indigenous, Black, and women impacted by racism, women with disabilities, and members of Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and additional sexually and gender diverse (2SLGBTQI+) communities.
This PA is designed to support research that considers physical, biological, reproductive, psychological, emotional, cultural, and/or spiritual health as it relates to female athletes participating in sports across the life-course together with gender and other intersecting variables. Target research areas for this initiative include:
• Sex-related factors that differently or disproportionately influence health outcomes of female athletes participating in sports.
• Impact of sports participation on puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, postpartum health, menopause, aging, and/or other sex-specific health outcomes among female athletes.
• Identification of unique health experiences of female athletes participating in sport with intersecting variables including ethnicity, (dis)ability, age, sexual orientation, and gender (including gender identity inclusive of trans, non-binary, gender non-conforming, and other gender diverse identities; gender relations; gender roles; and/or institutionalized gender dimensions);
• Identification of strategies to manage, support, and promote mental health and psychological safety of female athletes in the context of sport participation.
