the ams doctoral completion award provides funding to doctoral 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 to help support full-time dissertation writing leading to dissertation completion in the humanities or social sciences, writing on a history of medicine/health care topic – broadly defined as the study of past practices and epistemologies related to human health, healthcare, and disease.

the ams postdoctoral fellowship provides support to promising researchers at a pivotal time in their careers. candidates should be embarking on a period of full-time post-phd degree studies and wish to add to their experience by engaging in research in canada or abroad. the fellowships are intended for emerging scholars to complete work already started on projects featuring the study, analysis, and interpretation of past practices, philosophies, and/or epistemologies related to human health, health care and/or disease, or the education of health professionals, or to begin a new project in the field.

the project grant program supports small-budget proposals for research projects in the history of medicine and allied disciplines such as science and technology studies, sociology, anthropology, and classics. projects must strive to advance the history of health, healthcare and disease, or the education of health professionals.

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 $10,000.

the specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:

• establish a multi-stakeholder pediatric cancer consortium which covers the cancer control continuum from prevention to diagnosis, treatment to survivorship that encompasses the breadth of stakeholders and knowledge-users with a transparent, inclusive multi-jurisdictional recruitment and membership process, meaningful engagement with partners and innovative international research collaborations.
• advance pediatric cancer research through platforms and projects in high priority areas.
• improve the research pipeline for the development and further access to drugs for children affected by cancer and their families, by working in the context of regulatory frameworks (health canada) for drug approval processes and, with engagement of people with lived/living experience (pwle), influencing system improvements through research and knowledge mobilization. 
• advance equitable access to new and promising therapies regardless of geography, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic status.
• build capacity for the next generation of pediatric cancer researchers through training and mentorship opportunities embedded and interconnected across the consortium and capacity for people with lived and living experience to engage meaningfully in the research ecosystem.
• maximize research impact and knowledge mobilization within and beyond the consortium to help ensure evidence is integrated in and used to inform health policy, decision making and planning.
