This support allows postdoctoral researchers to add to their experience by engaging in research either in Canada or abroad, and facilitates their transition to the next phase of their career.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-3 kt-pane14124_5ad0e1-a5\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\" type=\"button\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\">Eligibility<\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<p><strong>This award is not intended for students (including&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cihr-irsc.gc.ca\/e\/38886.html#an\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">health professionals<\/a>) to complete a degree or related internship.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Applications must meet&nbsp;<strong>all&nbsp;<\/strong>of the eligibility criteria to be eligible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">General conditions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To be eligible to apply, you must:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>hold or expect to hold a doctorate or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cihr-irsc.gc.ca\/e\/38886.html#an\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">health professional degree<\/a>&nbsp;before the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca\/Students-Etudiants\/Guides-Guides\/TriRTA-TriBFR_eng.asp#startdate\">start date of your award<\/a>; and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>not hold or be on leave from a tenure-track or tenured faculty position.
