The Institute of Musculoskeletal Health and Arthritis (IMHA), & the Institute of Neurosciences , Mental Health and Addiction (INMHA) of the CIHR, in partnership with The National Institutes of Health launch:
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Canadian Institutes of Health Research invite applications for funding of basic, mechanistic, and/or preclinical research focused on the mechanisms underlying the biomechanical, immunological, endocrinological and/or neurophysiological consequences of manual therapies, such as spinal manipulation, mobilization and massage therapy. Such studies will both provide information on the possible mechanisms of action of manual therapies, and also provide a stronger foundation for ongoing and planned clinical studies. Applicants are encouraged to employ cutting-edge technologies to broaden or strengthen the knowledge bases needed to improve clinical practice.
