Building Capacity


Crohn’s and Colitis Canada supports researchers throughout their careers, from undergraduate students working in research labs through to established senior scientists. By co-funding salary awards, fellowships, and student scholarships, we are building research capacity and ensuring that significant research effort remains focused on IBD.


Training awards ensure a reliable supply of highly-qualified personnel develop the knowledge and skills required to become a seasoned investigator. Through co-funding partnerships with other research funding agencies, these awards support top-ranked undergraduate, graduate and post-doctoral trainees who have demonstrated potential for a career in IBD-related research.
