CIHR Project Grants: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Health researchers can apply for project funding to support specific, time-bound research studies in Canada.

The CIHR Project Grants provide financial support to health researchers to carry out specific, time-bound research projects.

Who it's for

This scheme is designed for health researchers who are working on specific research projects that have a set timeframe for completion.

What you get

You can receive funding to cover the costs of your research. The amount of money provided varies depending on the size of your project and your specific budget requirements.

What it costs you

While the funding supports your work, you must put in significant effort to prepare the application. You will need to provide a detailed justification for your budget and submit documentation regarding ethical reviews.

The catch to know

Once you receive the grant, there is a high administrative burden. You will need to spend time and effort on regular compliance reporting to stay in line with the requirements.

How to apply

  1. Review the specific research requirements for your field.
  2. Prepare your project budget and ethical review documents.
  3. Submit your application through the official portal.
