• This prize was established to honour the past Scientific Director of the Institute of Aging, Yves Joanette, for his outstanding contributions to the area of research on aging in Canada and internationally.
• This prize will be given annually to the highest ranking funded project in the Project Grant competition that is relevant to one of the Institute of Aging’s Strategic Directions as described below:
o Strategic Direction 1: Health and Wellness over the Trajectory of Aging
Priority Areas:
¿ Life trajectory as a determinant of healthy and satisfying aging
¿ Added life to the later years
o Strategic Direction 2: Facing the Complex Health Challenges of an Older Population
Priority Areas:
¿ Understanding, preventing and addressing multiple chronic conditions
¿ Facing the challenge of dementia
¿ Recognizing new emerging aging populations
¿ Ensuring the adaptation of healthcare and services to an aging population
¿ Informing late-life care and decisions
• More information on the research priorities of CIHR-IA can be found on their website.
• This prize is a supplemental grant to support research, and has to be used according to the Tri-Agency Guide on Financial Administration. The prize is not a personal award and is non-renewable.

The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are:
• To provide recognition and funding to academic researchers;
• To provide a reliable supply of highly skilled and qualified researchers.

• The CIHR Institute of Infection and Immunity (CIHR-III) will fund applications that are determined to be specifically relevant to their mandate with a primary focus on biomedical research in which the objective and aims are directed towards building foundational knowledge in immunology and/or infectious diseases. This priority announcement will prioritize funding for research in the following research areas:
o Infection:
• Zoonotic or vector-borne transmission of pathogens in the context of Global Climate Change;
• Understanding functional genomics and/or molecular epidemiology of emerging/re-emerging pathogens;
• Resistance to fungal infections and/or the role of bacteriophages in combatting antimicrobial resistance (AMR)
o Immunity:
• Immune mechanisms involved in the development of trained innate immunity;
• Immune mechanisms involved in the development and maintenance of tissue-specific immunity;
• Metabolic regulation of immune cells and processes (immunometabolism)
• Should there be no eligible applications relevant to the research areas identified above, III will fund applications that are relevant to its mandate with a primary focus on biomedical research in which the objective and aims are directed towards building foundational knowledge in immunology and/or infectious diseases.
