Grants and Contributions

This prize was established to recognize the excellence of research in aging being conducted in Canada. This prize will be given annually to the top mid career researcher with the highest ranking project in the Project competition that are relevant to one of the Institute of Aging’s areas as outlined in the CIHR IA Strategic Plan 2023-2028: Reframing Aging Empowering Older Adults.

This prize is a supplemental grant to support research and must be used according to the CIHR Grants and Awards Guide. The prize is not a personal award and is non-renewable.

The specific objective of this funding opportunity is:

• To catalyze and support research efforts of Canadian researchers to use the available CLSA data in order to better understand how biological, medical, psychological, social, lifestyle and/or economic aspects of people’s lives have an impact on both maintaining health and the development of disease and disability as people age.

The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:

• Generate new knowledge around the risk and protective factors for the full spectrum of problematic gambling and/or gaming;
• Generate intervention-related evidence to address the needs of knowledge users in this space, including health care and/or health services policy and practice, as well as for regulatory aims;
• Generate data and evidence to monitor and evaluate the potential benefits, harms, and unintended consequences of federal and/or provincial/territorial gambling and/or gaming regulations on health;
• Facilitate consideration and application of new evidence to inform ongoing and future development of policies, practices and programs related to gambling and/or gaming;
• Encourage approaches that consider different populations, particularly those from marginalized populations and/or the implications of the social determinants of health in problematic gambling and/or gaming.

The CIHR Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Research Initiative, under the co-leadership of CIHR's Institute of Infection and Immunity (CIHR-III) and CIHR's Institute of Population and Public Health (CIHR-IPPH) 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 RI 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.
