Description
Early Career Researcher (ECR) SECURE Awards
The SECURE program is designed to provide the support Early Career Researchers (ECRs) in gastroenterology and hepatology are currently missing, to succeed in the long term, as scientists and clinician-scientists.
SECURE faculty will already have salary support from their home institution. Therefore, TRIANGLE focuses on providing innovative, tailored, and targeted support to ECRs that are not available at their universities and research institutes but are integral to personal and professional success.
These include:
- – training and mentorship that will allow ECRs to successfully and seamlessly bridge the gap between the training and lab leader stages of their careers
- – funding travel to TRIANGLE’s face-to-face annual summit, where ECRs will have access to the top Canadian faculty in their fields for mentorship, learning, networking, and collaboration building
- – possible annual ECR leadership retreat where TRIANGLE ECRs develop critical leadership skills and leverage the expertise of colleagues within and beyond GI and liver
- – access to competitive PhD, postdoc, and summer student trainee stipend support (AMPLIFY and CONNECT awards) to help ECRs recruit world-class trainees to their labs
Postdoctoral Awards
TRIANGLE Postdoctoral Awards are intended for candidates who wish to pursue a career conducting research in GI and liver health and wellbeing. AMPLIFY PDF awards will provide salary support (1:1 match with supervisor and/or home institution) while ENRICH awards will give learners access to the same curriculum without salary support. These awards will enhance training with tailored education, mentorship, community, and experiential learning opportunities. At the end of each three-year TRIANGLE award, awardees will have the self-knowledge, skills, experience, and network to launch a fulfilling and impactful career in any sector that leverages their specialist knowledge and skills.
