Our Research Experts
The COVID-19 pandemic revealed the importance of strengthening Canada’s ability to make vaccines and other lifesaving medicines, and of being prepared for future pandemics or other health emergencies. In September 2021, the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) launched the Biosciences Research Infrastructure Fund (BRIF) to provide institutions and research hospitals with tools, research spaces and biocontainment facilities to respond to this need.
This national competition is a partnership with the Canada Biomedical Research Fund (CBRF). It awarded up to $570 million for cutting-edge research, talent development and research infrastructure projects associated with five biomedical research hubs that were awarded funding through Stage 1 of CBRF. Please visit the Canada Biomedical Research Fund website to view the list of recipients who have been awarded grants for their innovative projects.
We are pleased to announce the recipients of the federal grant, selected for their excellence and dedication to innovation.
