The purpose of this initiative is to promote research and its translation into more effective products to improve the health of Canadians. Proposals were invited from appropriately qualified researchers or teams in Ontario relating to the development and commercialization of innovative medical and assistive technologies and the development of innovative commercializable technologies demonstrating more expeditious diagnoses and/or treatments with potential for reducing waiting times for services including treatments or enhancing the throughput of patients and/or biological materials for diagnostic testing while providing high quality care.
Five applications were received to the January 8, 2007 deadline and we are pleased to announce that three were approved for funding.
