CIHR's IPPH-IHSPR Summer Institute
The Summer Institute is one of many strategic capacity-building activities that was planned by IPPH and IHSPR to foster the creation and maintenance of complex interdisciplinary research teams and their community/policy-maker/practitioner partners. Such collaborations are increasingly recognized as critical to ensuring high-quality population & public health (PPH) and health services and policy (HSP) research.The Summer Institute was intended as an annual event (subject always to the availability of funding and local organizers and hosts) that would contribute to the evolution of a network of PPH and HSP researchers and research users across the country.
There are no Summer Institutes being planned at this time.
