🚨 New correspondence in Nature! 🚨I argue for bigger increases to CIHR investigator-initiated grants, because bigger operating budgets = better stipends for research trainees across 🇨🇦. nature.com/articles/d4158…

The funding disparity for research trainees is even worse in Quebec, where students face greater financial struggles, as highlighted in La Presse. nature.com/articles/d4158… read more: lapresse.ca/actualites/edu… FRQ - secteur Santé CIHR

Dear Pierre Poilievre: The Trudeau govt only addressed the tip of the iceberg in supporting biomedical research. While increased student stipends are vital, a greater impact for all lies in boosting CIHR project grants. See my nature article for more: nature.com/articles/d4158…

Most of the trainees are being paid by PI CIHR grant in Canada. However, in the two latest competition awarded grant were cut by 23% across board. This makes it incredibly difficult to do the research and be able to increase the stipend for the trainee.

Scholarships for graduate trainees went up in the last budget and it is time!! But without a significant increase in operating funding there is gonna be an important gap between trainees. We all recognize it is essential to increase stipend for trainees but funding need to match.

The results of the Fall 2024 Project Grant competition are out! Congratulations to the grantees and thank you to the dedicated peer reviewers who make the magic happen behind the scenes. cihr-irsc.gc.ca/e/54191.html?h…
