A CIHR Commercialization Peer Review Committee Information Session is planned for Thursday June 23, 2022, from 12:00 pm to 1:30 pm EDT. The purpose of this session is to give potential applicants to the Commercialization Peer Review Committee of the CIHR Project Grant program (CMZ) an opportunity to hear first-hand about the committee ‘culture’: what aspects are generally well-received by reviewers in CMZ, what factors are considered more important than others, how the committee’s mandate is interpreted, what types of proposals are transferred to or from other committees.

This online workshop, led by Robert Laurie, customer success manager at Ex Libris, will provide University of Waterloo faculty members and graduate students with an overview of key features of Pivot-RP, a searchable database of research funding opportunities.
