The CIHR Project Grant Reapplication Program is targeted to support independent researchers who applied to a recent CIHR’s Project Grant competition and were unsuccessful in being funded. This funding aims to address specific improvements in the application as highlighted in their CIHR Review Panel reports and to increase the likelihood of success in future CIHR Project grant competitions.
Award Value: Up to $50,000
The maximum award value is $50,000 for one year, with $25,000 supported by the Office of the Vice-President (Research) and matched 1:1 by the applicant’s faculty and/or affiliate hospital research institute. The award value cannot exceed the annual funding requested in the most recent CIHR Project Grant application.
Eligibility
A Principal Investigator must hold a research-eligible academic appointment at 深夜福利站 and be the Nominated Principal Applicant (NPA) on the recent CIHR Project Grant application. To be eligible for the CIHR Project Grant Reapplication Program, the applicant must:
- Have been unsuccessful as the Nominated Principal Applicant in the last Project Grant competition (i.e., the Project Grant competition in Spring 2025);
- Have received a minimum rank of 75th percentile (or greater) from the CIHR Peer Review Committee; and
- Must not hold active funding greater than $25,000 for the project through any other external agencies.
Principal Investigators can only receive the CIHR Project Grant Reapplication Program support once per project on an unsuccessful application. Once the Reapplication funding has been secured, the project becomes ineligible for future competitions.
Projects in the terminal year or within two months of the terminal year of a CIHR funded Bridge grant will be eligible for 深夜福利站’s CIHR Project Grant Re-application Program.
Nominated Principal Applicants who applied through one of 深夜福利站’s affiliate hospitals are eligible to apply to this program provided they meet the eligibility requirements. Applicants to this program should follow the stated submission guidelines with the exception of completing a ROLA proposal.
Submission Process
Eligible applicants will be determined by 深夜福利站 Research and the applicable Associate Deans Research, as well as the Vice-Presidents of Research (or designates) for affiliate hospital research institutes. Applicants will be invited to submit an application to this program via the faculty’s Associate Deans of Research or the hospital Vice-Presidents of Research.
