CLF operating grants are for the support of research projects directed towards a defined objective, conducted by an investigator working alone or in collaboration with others. These grants may be used to purchase materials, supplies and items of equipment costing less than $5,000, to buy and maintain animals, and to support travel costs (to a limit of $1,000).
In 2018, four operating grants may be awarded:
- Two operating grants may be awarded to researchers in Canada whose research projects are related to hepatobiliary research.
- One operating grant may be awarded to a researcher in Ontario whose research project is related to liver cancer.
- One operating grant may be awarded to a researcher in Ontario whose research project is related to pediatric liver disease.
In recognition of the CLF’s varying calls for applications which may include specific designations for type of liver disease or a geographic location or have no designations and be open to all types and locations for hepatobiliary research, CLF operating grant applicants are asked to select and apply to one category per grant and identify their selected grant category on the application form.
Investigators with primary research interest in liver disease who hold an academic appointment in a Canadian university or affiliated institution are eligible to apply. Clinical investigators and basic scientists will be considered.
Applicants for operating grants must be members of the Canadian Association for the Study of the Liver (CASL) and Canadian citizens, landed immigrants and permanent residents will receive first consideration.
