Expedited Knowledge Synthesis is a two-year pilot that accelerates all phases of synthesis production – application, review, research, knowledge translation – to offer timely, accessible and relevant evidence to ministry-level decision makers. This funding opportunity will support teams of researchers to conduct expedited knowledge syntheses on topics identified by decision makers in the health ministries of three participating pilot provinces: New Brunswick, Ontario and Saskatchewan. All eligible CIHR researchers can apply (not just those from the three pilot provinces). It is expected that this targeted investment will support the use of synthesized evidence in decision-making in each of the three provinces and increased linkages between researchers and decision makers.
