Issue 11/03 – 19 November 2003
CF members invited to submit research proposals
By Cathy Croteau
Under the direction of the Health Services Research
& Development Board, the Quality of Life Research Programme
has been developed for all CF personnel interested in conducting
health-related research.
Aimed at improving both the quality of life of CF
members and the quality of CF health care delivery, the types of
research eligible for funding are limited to the measurement of
health indicators (physical or psychological), medicine, and social
services issues experienced by or related to CF Regular and Reserve
Force members – current, retired or veterans. Funding will
be awarded to research that will provide concrete, useful deliverables
in policy, procedures, protocols or equipment.
Personnel applying for funds need not have a research
background, and external partnerships are encouraged. All submitted
proposals must be in accordance with specific Research & Development
formats and include all required supporting documentation. If these
conditions are not met, the proposal will not be considered for
funding.
Before preparing and submitting a proposal, interested
personnel should contact the Programme Manager at Croteau.C@forces.gc.ca
or at (613) 945-6967. Visit http://hr.ottawa-hull.mil.ca/health/engraph/home_e.asp
(Intranet users only) and click on “QOL Research” under
“Projects” for additional information, guidelines, and
application forms.
