CIHR – Project Grant Webinars

Thursday, May 28, 2026 from 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm

CIHR has launched targeted consultations with the health research community to address challenges in the peer review system for the Project Grant competition. As part of this work, we are hosting a series of webinars open to anyone who would like to participate.

Each session will provide an overview of the issues facing the current system and explore potential interventions (e.g., moving to one competition per year, restricting applications, capping resubmissions). Feedback gathered through these discussions will help inform a position paper that will be shared with the community for broader consultation later this summer.
