Collaborative Health Research Projects (CHRP): A Panel Discussion Hosted by Engineering and Medicine

The CHRP program is a joint initiative between NSERC and CIHR. The program supports innovative interdisciplinary collaborative research projects requiring participation from the natural sciences or engineering community together with the health sciences community. Proposed research projects must have a strong focus on knowledge translation and lead to health and economic benefits for Canadians, more effective health services and products, and/or a strengthened health care system.

Panelists: 

         Professor Marianne Hatzopoulou, Civil Engineering
         Professor Milica Radisic, Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering
         Professor Jumi Shin, Chemical and Physical Sciences, UTM
         Professor Molly Shoichet, Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering
         Professor Eli Sone, Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering, and Material Science and Engineering
