To address the gap between the Temerty Faculty of Medicine’s Project Grant proposals and CIHR’s limited available funding envelope, the Office of the Vice-Dean, Research and Health Science Education (RHSE) will provide Pathway Grants for the Fall and Spring Project Grant competitions. This funding program functions as an internal CIHR bridge grant for top-rated Project Grant proposals from on-campus Temerty Faculty of Medicine applicants. There will be up to six grants per Project competition (Spring and Fall) worth $50,000 for 1 year, with the potential for a 1-year no-cost extension. The top six unfunded proposals, by percentile rank within review committee, will receive Pathway Grants.

To be eligible for a Pathway Grant – you must be enrolled and in good standing with the Temerty Faculty of Medicine's College of Internal Scientific Reviewers at the time of the prior Project Grant competition and submit your application for Internal Peer Review.
