As outlined in the CIHR Institute of Genetics (IG) Strategic Plan, the IG recognizes the need to increase and foster clinical genetics research in Canada. In response, the IG created the Clinical Investigatorship Award to increase researcher capacity in this critical area.
The IG Clinical Investigatorship Award affords recipients the opportunity to demonstrate their ability to initiate and conduct research - in the area of clinical genetics - by contributing to their salary. This award is designed to provide protected time for early-career clinical investigators to undertake clinical or translational genetics research.
