BC Environmental and Occupational Health Research Network

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support the prompt initiation of research focused on public health and health care system interventions to H1N1 and to study the differential effects of these responses on vulnerable populations. This funding opportunity is also intended to encourage research on the potential ethical, legal and social implications of public health and other health care system interventions directed at the H1N1 outbreak. The effectiveness of knowledge translation approaches used to inform public health and health care system responses to the H1N1 outbreak is also of interest. Close collaboration between decision-makers and researchers from a variety of disciplines is strongly encouraged.
