• Support the development of skills that increase the likelihood of employability and career prospects of trainees, researchers, healthcare professionals and clinical research professionals across sectors, by integrating training on:
o approaches to advance rigorous and responsible research (e.g., product development from discovery to commercialization; best practices in clinical trial design, recruitment, conduct and reporting; sex- and gender-based analysis plus [SGBA+] (WSC:#moreInformation); research data management, research involving Indigenous Peoples, ethics, unconscious bias, life cycle/life stage approaches to clinical trials);
o grant/proposal writing, budgeting, and peer review;
o Professional development skills (including transferrable skills, such as communication, analytical thinking, problem solving, project management, leadership, etc.);
o best practices in knowledge translation and implementation science; and
o diverse career options and opportunities available across the different sectors (private/for profit, public and not-for-profit)

The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are, in the context of the Biomanufacturing and Life Sciences Strategy, to:

• Support research teams across the country in conducting clinical trials that apply intersectional study design, primary data collection, and analyses so that the outcomes and health benefits of these trials can be applied to Canada’s diverse population;
• Support the participation of Canadian sites in international clinical trials;
• Promote relevant collaborations across disciplines, professions, and sectors; and
• Contribute to the creation and use of health-related knowledge.

The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:

• Generate evidence on the impacts, including the public health impacts and economic health impacts of this exemption in British Columbia through engagement of various stakeholder groups including PWUD, the general population, police forces and the criminal justice system;
• Foster cross-disciplinary collaboration and bilateral interaction with decision makers and knowledge users to address pressing evidence needs further to the evaluation in order to directly inform drug policy;
• Consider the impact of the local context and other factors, such as biological and social determinants (e.g., sex, gender, age, housing status and income, etc.) and sub-populations (e.g., those with severe opioid use disorder, youth, Indigenous peoples, rural, inner-urban, etc.), on the implementation of the exemption;
• Identify considerations for further evaluation activities, including insights and generalizable knowledge regarding implementation processes, barriers, and facilitators; and
• Advance evidence-based practices through knowledge dissemination activities.
