Overview
The Healthy Brains, Healthy Lives (HBHL) initiative is a high profile, high priority multidisciplinary and cross-sectoral initiative located at McGill University made possible with support from the Canada First Research Excellence Fund (CFREF). The HBHL Strategic Research Plan outlines the vision, deliverables, and overall goals of the initiative, and the research priorities of its four research themes.
The Bridge Funding Program aims to continue to support the most promising projects in their post Ignite maturation, help projects and technologies gain traction, and generate interest from industrial partners or investors.
