This is a special workshop on CIHR Grant Writing with some helpful tips on what makes a fundable proposal from our guest speakers who are CIHR reviewers and successful CIHR applicants. It will also include information about the machine that is CIHR. The speakers will share their experiences and provide 'best practices'. (Note: With SSHRC is no longer funding health-related research, these applications should now go to CIHR - cihr-irsc.gc.ca).
