the canadian forces health services group wishes to conduct data analysis on health information obtained from reserve canadian armed forces (caf) members through the 2013/14 health and lifestyle information survey (hlis) and to create a written report of the findings. this is part of ongoing health surveillance that is done to provide information on the health status of caf members.  

the canadian institute for military and veteran health research (cimvhr) has entered into partnership with the government of canada to procure research and development services related to the mental, social and physical wellbeing of active military members, veterans and their families. cimvhr is seeking notices of interest from qualified researchers or a research team to enter into a contract with cimvhr to produce this work.

meopar is pleased to issue a call for proposals for our new response research grant program.

following the success of our observation and prediction cores, meopar is looking to fund projects to expand research capacity in our response core. this call aims to support social science investigations and strengthen the integration of social science and natural science research within the network.

meopar’s use of the term ‘response’ is broader than ‘emergency response’ and refers to aspects such as decision-making, solutions and impacts. the scope of the call encompasses investigations of vulnerability, preparedness, consequence analysis, prevention, mitigation, resilience, recovery, community planning, policy, and regulation.

the response research grant program will fund a number of multi-year research projects that closely align with meopar’s strategic plan and research focus on marine risk and response. research partnerships, new initiatives, and postdoctoral fellowships will be considered.

proposals are required to have practical goals with clear evidence of end-user involvement in the identification of the research topic to be addressed and the formulation, support and conduct of the research itself.

please see the attached document for further details.

the deadline for applications is october 16, 2015 at 4:00 p.m. (adt)
