Submission Process - Office of Post-Doctoral Training / CIHR

Your application must be submitted using ResearchNet.
This funding opportunity participates in the eApproval process. This means that when the applicant submits their application using ResearchNet, it will be electronically directed to the research office at the institution where the applicant plans to take up their post-doc position. At Queen's, this competition will be managed by the Office of Post-Doctoral Training.

NB: There is a CIHR signature sheet that applicants need to download from ResearchNet, and then upload once completed (see step 7, application instructions). Only signatures from the applicant's SUPERVISOR(s) are required in this signature sheet.
