CIHR Project Grant Priority Announcements

CIHR · Federal

In plain language

Top-up funding layered on CIHR Project Grant applications — if your project scores above the cutoff AND aligns with a CIHR Institute or partner priority (e.g., Indigenous health, digital health, women's health, dementia, rural/remote health), you get automatic consideration for supplementary funding from a topic-specific envelope. No second application required; identify relevant Priority Announcements at Project Grant submission. Award amounts stack on top of the base Project Grant. Relevant for NL health researchers working on regionally distinctive topics (rural health, marine health hazards, Indigenous health in Nunatsiavut/NunatuKavut).
