POSTPONED - Consultation Session: Proposed Changes to the CIHR Project Grant Program

UPDATE: This event has been postponed. A new date will be set shortly

The Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) is considering significant reforms to its Project Grant program, including moving to a single annual competition and revising its peer review model in response to growing application volumes, increasing challenges in recruiting and retaining peer reviewers.

As part of its consultation with the research community, CIHR representatives will meet with McGill stakeholders to present emerging proposals and solicit feedback on the potential implications of these reforms for researchers and institutions at 10 AM – 12 PM, Friday, September 18, in the McIntyre Medical Building, room 208/9, 3655 Promenade Sir-William-Osler, Montreal, Quebec H3G 1Y6.

The discussion will provide an opportunity to exchange perspectives and contribute to CIHR's efforts to strengthen the effectiveness, sustainability, and fairness of Project Grant program. Researchers from all disciplines are welcome to attend. Please register in advance by September 15. (NOTE: Capacity for this event is limited to 80 participants)
