Team Grant: Strategic Teams in Applied Injury Research Funding Opportunity

CIHR is pleased to announce the results of the Letter of Intent (LOI) review for the "Team Grant: Strategic Teams in Applied Injury Research" Funding Opportunity.

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to reduce the occurrence of injuries and its consequences. By supporting multi-disciplinary teams of talented and experienced researchers and building further researcher capacity in the areas of injury prevention, treatment and control, it is expected that this strategic investment will create new knowledge useful in the development of policies, programs and products related to the safety of Canadians.

The CIHR Team Grant program funds expert teams (uni-disciplinary teams, multi-disciplinary teams, trans-disciplinary teams, community-partnered teams, academic-industry teams, etc.). Partners can include decision-makers, program administrators, care givers, policy makers and practitioners working in health-oriented community organizations, community-based foundations and organizations, local, provincial/territorial and national health charities and non-profit organizations, hospital and research institute foundations, municipal and regional health authorities, public health departments, district health councils, and provincial/territorial government agencies.

A total of 26 LOIs were submitted to the competition and 17 have been invited to submit full applications. Some Development Funds requests are still under review.
