Mission

The objectives of "Friends" is to assist the CIHR in realizing its strategic goal of a significantly enhanced research support structure.  We are to serve as an advisory resource for CIHR and to the individual institutes as they emerge.  We are to serve as a community link on behalf of CIHR regionally and nationally.  We will be involving volunteer agencies, universities, hospitals, and private corporations in the promotion of health research.   We will lend support to the development of a consistent message supporting increased research funding from all levels of government.

To be most effective, we need to expand our membership base, and get more members involved in these initiatives.  Our organization must represent a broad spectrum of health scientists and clinical investigators.  Collectively, we will be a strong voice for excellence.

Volunteers are needed!  If you would like to be involved in any aspect of our mandate, please contact the FCIHR office, or Dr. Aubie Angel, President.
