CDTRP is launching the Research Innovation Grant Competition 2022

Since 2013, the Canadian Donation and Transplantation Research Program (CDTRP) has supported research and innovation that addresses barriers within the fields of donation and transplantation, with the ultimate goal of advancing long-term health outcomes and quality of life for Canadian transplant patients.

Through strategic partnerships with several key partners across Canada, the CDTRP has sustained a commitment to research and development within the transplant scientific community through the continued launch of the CDTRP Research Innovation Grant Competitions. This collaborative effort between the CDTRP and our partners is intended to seed new and innovative pilot projects in the transplant and donation field.

For the 2022 competition, the CDTRP will offer two grants at $30,000 CAD each. In addition, the CDTRP is proud to partner with the following organizations to provide further funding to support up to eleven grants overall:

The CDTRP’s New Initiatives Committee (NIC) developed the guidelines for the competition, will receive and process the applications, and will evaluate and rank the applications through a competitive peer reviewed process.
