Document Summary
Cihr = health ranging from basic molecular biology to pre-clinical trials. Sshrc = social sciences some other initiatives (e. g. green, water, genome canada) Cihr funds post-docs and professors, don"t care about undergrads and grads don"t care much about getting undergrads feet wet. Nserc, on the other hand, care a lot about education and giving undergrads experience. Nserc will redirect you to cihr if the grant is medical" - have to let them know that research has nothing to do with human health. Nih similar to cihr, but are international (don"t have to be from usa to apply) Some often disease-speci c foundations (diabetes, heart, terry fox foundations), usually private and non-pro t, not government, organization. When a grant is released by an organization, the university adds the grant to its database, and puts a person in charge of nding all the rules and regulations of the grant and what the organization wants.
