Change to Competition Deadline Schedule for Randomized Controlled Trials Program
In light of budget limitations and in recognition of the number of full applications expected for submission to the RCT program during 2006-2007, CIHR has taken the operational decision to hold only 2 competitions for full applications to the RCT Program in 2006-2007. Full applications will only be accepted for the September 1, 2006 (Registration deadline: August 1, 2006) and February 15, 2007 (Registration deadline: January 15, 2007 ) competitions.
To ensure that high quality applications continue to be developed for funding as Full applications in future years, RCT Outline applications will continue to be accepted at the usual deadline dates of August 1, 2006; October 1, 2006; January 15, 2007 and March 1, 2007.
For more information, please consult the Funding News and Developments section.
