Grants and Contributions

To provide travel awards to individuals attending the 2024 CIHR-III New Investigator Forum (NIF) in person. The objective of the NIF is to provide practical information and learning opportunities to promote the professional development of early career researches, as well as late-stage postdoctoral fellows or research associates, whose research is relevant to III’s mandate.

The objectives of this funding opportunity are to:
1. Support Canadian registered charities or non-profit organizations with work in the area of aging in the mobilization and dissemination of knowledge to those who would benefit from being better informed Areas must be relevant to at least one of the CIHR Institute of Aging’s Strategic Research Directions.
2.

This supplement builds on the objectives of the first Operating Grant: Addressing Infectious and Congenital Syphilis in Canada with a specific focus on: • Enhancing community engagement in and capacity for research priority-setting to expand the reach and promote sustainability of syphilis research and knowledge mobilization activities.

• CIHR – Institute of Genetics and Takeda Canada have a strategic interest in advancing research in Rare Diseases in Canada by equipping research trainees so that they emerge from their training as scientific, professional, or organizational leaders within and beyond the health research enterprise.
• This specific opportunity seeks to support postdoctoral fellows focused on one or more of the listed research areas below.

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 goal of the Data Analysis Grants is to use existing cohorts, data platforms and/or administrative datasets to advance healthy cities intervention research and implementation science specifically by addressing one or more of the following objectives:

• Evaluating the impact on health and health equity of interventions to the physical, social or policy environment (including health system–mediated interventions);
• Contributing analyses to directly inform the planning of physical, social or policy interventions with the purpose of improving urban population health or health equity;
• Addressing critical contextual questions related to the implementation of one or more interventions and scaling up (knowledge sharing) of evidence-based interventions (including health system-mediated interventions);
• Filling knowledge gaps that are critical for laying the foundation for future population health intervention research in urban areas. For example, increasing our understanding around how interventions may impact populations differentially according to gender, age, race, culture, ethnicity, income, or dis/ability;
• Developing and/or validating indicators and other data or evaluation tools that enable robust, comparable, replicable and equitable healthy cities intervention research and implementation science (including health system-mediated interventions).
