the ams doctoral research 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.

ams healthcare is offering grants of up to $30,000 to support projects that will generate new knowledge or translate existing knowledge on the impact of digital technology and artificial intelligence on compassionate health care.

disruptive innovation grants will support preliminary research to establish proof of principle in novel concepts and approaches with the potential to revolutionize cancer prevention, detection and treatment. disruptive innovation grants will support proposals from any research field and discipline that demonstrate the potential for high impact and, where appropriate, seed collaborations among non-traditional cancer fields, such as engineering, ai, robotics, physics, nanoscience, statistics, informatics, computer and data sciences, behavioural science, and any other research domain poised to generate the next generation of disruptive technologies in cancer control. these grants are not intended to support research that represents incremental research in a program of work, or an expansion of previous work, but rather provide truly novel insights and directions for future larger grants that will serve as “game-changers” in the way we approach cancer, disrupting existing methods and displacing the status quo.

the grants stream will fund projects that increase public awareness, share best practices or lessons learned that support and enhance canada’s progress on the 2030 agenda particularly within equity-deserving groups and groups or individuals in vulnerable situations.
