More than $700,000 in New Funding Approved in September

More than 15 applications totalling $744,000 were approved at the September Grants Committee meeting. At this meeting, the Grants Committee reviewed the standard funding streams (New Investigator Grant, Health Research Grant, Resident Research, etc.), as well as applications for the 2020 Research Trainee Fellowship.
