Grants and Contributions

• 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 is designed to support research that reduces the burden of breast cancer on individuals and families through prevention strategies, screening, diagnosis, effective treatment, psycho-social support systems, and palliation.
• This priority announcement will fund research in the following research area:
o Breast Cancer Research

The 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 (individually and in combination) the biological, medical, psychological, social, lifestyle and/or economic aspects of people’s lives have an impact in both maintaining health and in the development of disease and disability as people age.

The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:

• Support policy research on how changes and/or different approaches to the financing, funding, organization, governance and/or delivery of health care systems and/or services and public health systems and/or services can impact the Quadruple Aim and health equity.
• Advance the methods and/or measurement approaches for health policy research.
• Mobilize diverse methodologies, multiple disciplines and perspectives, and knowledge mobilization approaches to generate evidence that is relevant and useful for policymakers.
• Provide policymakers with evidence-informed, contextualized policy options to support high-performing health systems and/or services (in the health care and/or public health settings) that advance the Quadruple Aim and health equity.
• Foster the creation of new or strengthening of existing partnerships and collaborations between researchers, policymakers and knowledge users with lived experience to align research with policy priorities by working together in pursuit of evidence-informed health systems transformation.

• The CIHR Institute of Neurosciences, Mental Health and Addiction (CIHR-INMHA) will fund an application that is determined to be relevant to their mandate and research priority areas.

• The CIHR Institute of Nutrition, Metabolism and Diabetes (INMD) will provide funding for applications in which the objectives and aims are determined to be largely and directly relevant to the INMD mandate as described below:
o CIHR-INMD supports research to enhance health in relation to diet, digestion, excretion, and metabolism; and to address causes, prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, support systems, and palliation for a wide range of conditions and problems associated with hormone, digestive system, kidney, and liver.
• These grants afford principal investigators an opportunity to resubmit their research proposal without the loss of momentum, staff or trainees.

The Centre for Research on Pandemic Preparedness and Health Emergencies will provide multi-year funding for applications that have a primary research objective on preventing, preparing for, responding to, and recovering from existing and future pandemics and other health emergencies. While all relevant research applications within this scope are eligible, projects that focus on the prevention of and/or recovery from pandemics and health emergencies are strongly encouraged.

In addition, projects that include at least one of the following topics/themes are also encouraged:

• Clinical, population health or health systems research
• Knowledge Mobilization
• Effect of social, cultural, environmental, structural and/or biological determinants of health or health equity on prevention and / or recovery
• Research priorities identified by First Nation, Inuit, Métis and/or Urban Indigenous communities
• Evaluation of effective science communications and/or knowledge mobilization activities related to prevention and/or recovery
• Evaluation of systems that enable effective and efficient prevention, and/or recovery

*For the purpose of this Priority Announcement, a health emergency is defined as:

A present or imminent event or phenomenon, of a temporary, acute nature, with actual or potential significant negative impacts on human health, resulting in a serious disruption of the functioning of a community; and/or the declaration of a state of emergency by a municipal, provincial/territorial, federal and/or Indigenous government, or international organization with a health research mandate, and which requires prompt research action to protect and strengthen human health
