Grants and Contributions

The directed grant supplement objectives are to:
• Support rapid response research and evidence-informed implementation of primary care innovations supported through HEC’s Care Forward initiative and the spread and scale of those innovations proven to be successful.
• Generate new knowledge about which innovations are most effective, in which populations and contexts, and why.
• Spark collaboration between CPCRN and relevant CIHR-funded entities working in primary care to maximize the impact and reach of the rapid response research.
Advance collective learning and future transformation by supporting a Pan-Canadian Common Measurement Project that aggregates knowledge across Care Forward teams, identifies key facilitators and barriers to implementation, and evaluates health and system outcomes of the initiatives.

This Priority Announcement will prioritize funding for research on HIV/AIDS and/or STBBI aligned with the CIHR HIV/AIDS Research Initiative: Strategic Plan (2022-2027) in the following research areas:

• Improving health equity by advancing research to understand and address determinants of health, new models of care, or sexual and reproductive health for people living with or at risk of HIV/AIDS and STBBI; or
• Accelerating discovery and innovation by advancing research on innovative technologies for testing and surveillance, interactions among infections and co-morbidities, or design and development of next-generation interventions.

• Breast Cancer Survivorship
o research that mitigates the challenges experienced along the breast cancer survivorship journey and improves the health outcomes for breast cancer survivors of all ages after cancer treatment ends.
o specifically in the areas of:
¿ Late and long-term effects of cancer treatment
¿ Survivors’ experiences and outcomes
¿ Models of care for cancer survivorship
o This PA will not fund research focused on improving end-of-life care.
• This PA supports research that creates new knowledge and/or moves it into practice in the health system, communities, workplaces, and in the daily lives of Canadians.

Innovations in how to organize, finance, manage and deliver health care that achieve the Quadruple Aim, improve equity, and are accountable to patients and the public in the following areas:
¿ Integration of care (including integrated delivery systems, continuity of care, and/or integration of upstream prevention approaches within health care delivery settings that address the social determinants of health);
¿ Primary care (in the context of health care delivery), and home, community, and long-term care.
¿ The health care workforce (including, funding and remuneration, training and support, such as leadership training incorporating equity, diversity and inclusion, scopes of practice, interdisciplinary collaboration, and data systems for planning).

The CIHR Institute of Circulatory and Respiratory Health (CIHR-ICRH) has the broad mandate of supporting research on the heart, lung, brain (stroke), blood, blood vessels, critical and intensive care, and sleep.
This Priority Announcement is focused on conditions of the heart and of the circulatory system across the lifespan, including but not limited to data acquisition.
• The proposed research should inform the management of early risk factors, for cardiac and non-cardiac complications of cardiovascular conditions.
• Research focusing on more than one (1) developmental or intergenerational period over the lifespan is encouraged.

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.
