Fellowship: Wyeth Pharmaceuticals Partnered (2007-2008)
Wyeth Pharmaceuticals and the CIHR/Rx&D Collaborative Research Program are pleased to announce the results of the "Fellowship: Wyeth Pharmaceuticals Partnered (2007-2008)" competition.Objectives
The specific objective of this initiative is to increase research capacity and research training in therapeutics areas. In addition, the intent of this initiative is to facilitate the translational objectives of CIHR, with particular interests in clinical research. Clinical research combines discoveries from the basic science laboratory incorporating the observations and insights of health professionals (a key aspect of translational research). It is the creation of new health knowledge and the translation of that knowledge from the research setting into applications where it ultimately impacts on the health of Canadians.
Relevant Research Areas:
- Obstetrics & Gynaecology (Menopause, Contraception)
- Neuroscience (Depression - unipolar and bipolar, Schizophrenia)
- Transplantation (Improving long-term outcomes by reducing complications associated with immunosuppressive therapy)
- Infectious Disease (Antibiotic Resistance)
- Oncology (Clinical Research in Solid Tumors)
One (1) application was submitted in February 2008. The application was reviewed by the University-Industry peer review committee resulting in its approval for funding.
