connection grants are expected to respond to the objectives of the connection program.

these grants support events and outreach activities geared toward short-term, targeted knowledge mobilization initiatives. these events and activities represent opportunities to exchange knowledge and to engage with participants on research issues of value to them. events and outreach activities funded by a connection grant can often serve as a first step toward more comprehensive and longer-term projects.

connection grants support workshops, colloquiums, conferences, forums, summer institutes, or other events or outreach activities that facilitate:

• disciplinary and/or interdisciplinary exchanges in the social sciences and humanities;
• scholarly exchanges between those working in the social sciences and humanities and those working in other research fields;
• intersectoral exchanges between academic researchers in the social sciences and humanities and researchers and practitioners from the public, private and/or not-for-profit sectors; and/or
• international research collaboration and scholarly exchanges with researchers, 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and non-academic partners from other countries.

the specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:

• enable investigators to co-create and undertake comparative effectiveness and/or implementation science innovative clinical trials (icts) with patient partners and multidisciplinary teams by supporting the development and testing of innovative methodologies and design, integrating the principles of spor.
• support the application of  ict designs, including advancements in trauma-informed designs; equity, diversity and inclusion; and inclusion of individuals who have historically been excluded.
• build capacity for ict methods and research through increased intensity, i.e., number of trialists, strengthening ict research capability nationally, in alignment with the spor capacity development framework.

this embedded ecr award aims to advance the overall objectives of the hsi program. additionally, this funding opportunity specifically aims to:

1. support ecrs as they develop embedded research roles and programs that advance the methods of embedded research, build embedded research capacity within health system organizations and mentor emerging embedded researchers, and generate evidence-informed solutions for high-priority challenges within health system organizations.
2. contribute to building a strong cadre of embedded researchers across the country that will play a role in transformative health system improvement that advances the quadruple aim and health equity.
3. support the development of career pathways for a diverse cadre of embedded researchers within canada’s health system.
