existing since march of 2001, brain star is a program of cihr’s institute of neurosciences mental health and addiction (cihr-inmha). brain star is administered under the institute community support grants and awards program and is designed to recognize the excellence of research done in canada by 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and trainees in all fields and disciplines covered by cihr-inmha.

the specific objectives of the brain star program are to:

• promote research careers in neuroscience, mental health and addiction in canada.
• stimulate the involvement of 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and trainees in the institute and increase awareness of inmha activities among 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and trainees.

in continued partnership, the canadian institutes of health research – institute of health services and policy research (cihr-ihspr) and canadian association for health services and policy research (cahspr) are pleased to launch the annual article of the year competition. the article of the year competition aims to recognize ground-breaking health services and policy research (hspr) published in the prior year in a peer-reviewed journal that has significantly contributed to the field of hspr. the recipient is honored with an award of $10,000, a certificate of excellence presented at the annual cahspr conference, and has the opportunity to present their article at a cahspr hspr talks webinar.

our grants support and encourage legal writing that is of value to canadian lawyers, notaries and judges in their day-to-day work in the law and in the administration of justice. our grants are generally in amounts greater than $5,000 and less than or equal to $15,000.

hfsp research grants support innovative basic research into fundamental biological problems with emphasis placed on novel and interdisciplinary approaches that involve scientific exchanges across national and disciplinary boundaries (see guidelines).

participation of scientists from disciplines outside the traditional life sciences such as biophysics, chemistry, computational biology, computer science, engineering, mathematics, nanoscience or physics is recommended because such collaborations have opened up new approaches for understanding the complex structures and regulatory networks that characterize living organisms, their evolution and interactions.

research grants are provided for teams of scientists from different countries who wish to combine their expertise in innovative approaches to questions that could not be answered by individual laboratories. preliminary results are not required and applicants are expected to develop new lines of research through the research collaboration.

it is understood that such research inherently contains risks and hfsp expects that teams of applicants address the risks and outline mitigation strategies for their research in case of failure and how they intend to achieve their goals.

applications for applied research, including medical research typically funded by national medical research bodies, will be deemed ineligible (see guidelines).

two types of grant are available: research grants – early career and research grants – program.

this funding opportunity is seeking submissions from researchers to conduct a scoping review on the available peer reviewed research and grey literature on the experiences and biopsychosocial impacts of perimenopause, menopause and post-menopause on women veterans’ health and well-being outcomes.

researchers are encouraged to use a broad search strategy so that applicable research from different militaries and contexts is included. research conducted internationally, including the united states of america, united kingdom, new zealand and australia, should be considered. sub-analysis or interpretation may be needed for each country to show availability of research and literature between countries and what is most relevant to the canadian women veteran population.

studies from grey literature should be captured in addition to peer-reviewed literature and publications on information about women veterans’ and the civilian women populations’ experiences with perimenopause, menopause and post menopause are to be included. sub-analysis or interpretation may be needed to demonstrate generalizability to women veterans of the canadian armed forces.

partnership engage grants are expected to respond to the objectives of the research partnerships program.

these grants provide short-term and timely support for partnered research activities that will inform decision-making at a single partner organization from the public, private or not-for-profit sector. the small-scale, stakeholder-driven partnerships supported through partnership engage grants are meant to respond to immediate needs and time constraints facing organizations in non-academic sectors. in addressing an organization-specific need, challenge and/or opportunity, these partnerships let non-academic organizations and postsecondary researchers access each other’s unique knowledge, expertise and capabilities on topics of mutual interest.
