The Collaborative Health Research Projects (CHRP) program supports innovative, interdisciplinary, collaborative research projects, requiring participation from the natural sciences or engineering community together with the health sciences community. The initiative requires the translation of the research results to knowledge/technology user organizations (KTUs) outside the academic or training environment. As such, the proposed research projects must have a strong focus on knowledge translation (KT) and lead to health and economic benefits for Canadians through more effective health services and products and/or a strengthened health care system. KTU organizations should be meaningfully engaged throughout the research process, as appropriate, to inform research planning and design.

University Research Services will be hosting a special event in support of the CHRP program on May 30 (1:00 pm - 3:00 pm, Ellis Hall, Room 226). The event will include a panel discussion with former reviewers & a networking event for faculty. To register for this event, please complete the online registration form by May 28 at the latest which is mandatory to participate.
