Researchers from 看片视频 University and its hospital-affiliated research institutes have been awarded $91.5 million in grants in the latest round of funding by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR).

The grants -- which will support research into areas from brain disorders to the health effects of climate change in the Arctic -- are part of over $600 million in funding announced today by Health Minister Rona Ambrose for researchers working at universities and hospitals across Canada.

The announcement covers two categories of funding:

  • A new category, called 鈥淔oundation鈥 grants, provides larger amounts of long-term support for innovative, high-impact programs of research; 看片视频 researchers have been awarded 24 of these grants, for a total of $60.6 million.

  • Transitional Open Operating grants, for specific projects, will provide a total of more than $30 million for 44 看片视频 researchers.

The Foundation grants cover a seven-year period for established investigators, and five years for early-career investigators. Four early-career researchers at 看片视频 landed grants in that sub-category.
