New Investigator Workshop

CFID is pleased to announce that it will be co-hosting a New Investigator Workshop for those working in the realm of infectious diseases.  The workshop will bring together aspiring researchers – ranging from Master’s students to New Faculty — from all research disciplines.  The workshop will include presentations from leading experts on topics such as getting your grant-funded, publishing, and speaking with the media.  In addition, a panel session will allow participants to ask questions directly to leading researchers. 

The event will take place on Tuesday, May 4th, 2021 (10:00 am – 3:00 pm EST) and is being held in partnership with the Canadian Association for HIV Research (CIHR).

Webinar: Professional Development for Mid-Career ID Researchers

This virtual Professional Development Workshop for Infectious Disease researchers – October 22-23, 2020 — was made possible through an innovative partnership between the Canadian Foundation for Infectious Diseases (CFID), the Canadian Association for HIV Research (CAHR) and CIHR’s Institute of Infection and Immunity (III) and HIV/AIDS Research Initiative.  Over the course of two days, over twenty mid-career researchers had the opportunity to network and learn from those with a wealth of experience in such domains as academic leadership, career progression, effective partnerships, global engagement, and communicating effectively with decision-makers.  Co-chaired by Dr. Curtis Cooper (University of Ottawa) and Dr. Keith Fowke (University of Manitoba), the meeting included presentations from Dr. David Evans (University of Alberta); Dr. Charu Kaushic (McMaster University, CIHR Institute of Infection and Immunity); and Dr. Guido van Marle (University of Calgary).  Special thanks are extended to sponsors Merck, Gilead, Innovative Medicines and the Canadian Society for International Health.  Click HERE to view the suite of presentations.
