Posted by Jaq-Lin Larder on July 24, 2023 in Research Funding

Brain Canada along with Heart & Stroke, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research Institute of Circulatory and Respiratory Health (CIHR-ICRH), and CIHR Institute of Genetics (IG) are excited to launch the Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) Team Grants.ÌýÌý

This funding opportunity focuses on CHD throughout the lifespan in the context of the whole-person with consideration of Indigenous health and wellness and health equity. Research Teams will focus on one of three priority Research Areas: (1) Causes and Early Detection; (2) Brain Health & CHD; and (3) Care Transitions. 

The competition aims to bring together multi-institutional, interdisciplinary health research teams with multiple collaborators (e.g., researchers, clinicians, people with lived/living experience (PWLE), health care providers, Indigenous Elders or Knowledge Keepers, government, policy makers, not-for-profit organizations, and industry) to create and mobilize knowledge that will improve the health and wellness of individuals living with CHD, their families and caregivers. 

Brain Canada together with Heart & Stroke, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Institute of Circulatory and Respiratory Health (ICRH) and CIHR Institute of Genetics (IG) are collectively committing to funding three (3) interdisciplinary Team Grants, with a total funding envelope of $5,250,000 CAD. The maximum amount per Team Grant is $350,000 CAD per year for a maximum of five (5) years.
