Description
This funding opportunity lies within the scope of the efforts deployed over the past few years by the CIHR Institute of Genetics to support rare/inherited diseases researchers, patients and patients’ organizations. These efforts, initiated as an exemplar under CIHR’s Personalized Medicine Signature Initiative, now continues under the Personalized Health Initiative, with an enhanced focus on implementation. In that spirit, the current funding opportunity addresses challenges linked to health services and policy and population health research.
The Knowledge Synthesis of Socio-Economic Burden of Inherited Disease Grants are expected to:
Identify and synthesize existing data about the cost of managing inherited diseases to clearly identify future research needs;
Synthesize scientific knowledge that will contribute to a common understanding of the current knowledge gaps in this area; and
Identify the best approach to fill the defined knowledge gap.
