Description
The Canadian Cancer Society’s Research Training Awards – Master’s program aims to support growth and innovation in the next generation of diverse cancer researchers across Canada. This program was co-developed with guidance from CCS advisors, including Black and Indigenous community members, and is continuously reviewed to monitor and improve its impact.
Recognizing that marginalized groups face structural and systemic barriers to inclusion and are underrepresented in the field of cancer research, CCS specifically invites Black and Indigenous trainees to submit applications for this competition.
