Canada strengthens national capacity in metaresearch

RoRI Core Partners The Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC), the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), and Michael Smith Health Research BC have announced $2.7 million in funding to 14 research teams over the next three years through the Research-on-Research Joint Initiative.

Recipients of this funding will explore a variety of important topics, including urban Indigenous governance in health research, how to advance scientific integrity across disciplines, and how reviewer expertise and engagement impact the peer review of grant applications.

This initiative strengthens Canada’s national capacity in metaresearch and contributes to global efforts to optimise research funding and practice.
