Congratulations to researchers recently funded to complete data analysis projects in human development, child and youth health!
The 2024 Analysis of Human Development, Child and Youth Health Data Using Existing Canadian Databases and Cohorts competition was led by IHDCYH in partnership with the CIHR Institute of Infection and Immunity (III), with additional support from the CIHR Institutes of Circulatory and Respiratory Health; Gender and Health; and Indigenous Peoples' Health.
Thanks to support from each of these partners, in the 2024 competition we were able to fund 21 projects. This funding opportunity supports projects that use data from existing Canadian-based cohorts, databases, cohort catalogues, and data platforms, and are relevant to human development, child and/or youth health with the goal to inform improved patient, population, and system outcomes. In addition to a general pool, projects were funded in pools dedicated to Indigenous research, and infection and immunity research. Congratulations to all the funded researchers.
