We are pleased to congratulate the BC Children’s and BC Women’s investigators who were awarded funding from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Project Grant Spring 2018 competition, as well as the BC Children’s investigators who received funding from the recent CIHR Foundation and Team Grant competitions.
Our research community received more than $4.9 million in new grants and awards through the Project Grant competition. In the Foundation and Team Grant competitions, our investigators were awarded more than $2.5 million.
The majority of investigators who were successful in these competitions benefited from the expertise of Dr. Dawn McArthur, Director, Research & Technology Development and the Research & Technology Development Office (RTDO) team. On behalf of BCCHR, we would like to thank the RTDO’s Dr. Tamara English, Ms. Amber Hui, Ms. Rita Jekabsons, Ms. Meisan Brown-Lum and Ms. Marissa Gibbard for their commitment and support.
