LifTING and Sepsis Canada Research Training Program

The LifTING and Sepsis Canada Research Training Program is a 2-year virtual health research training initiative fully funded by CIHR. This program is designed for individuals who are interested in engaging with and/or conducting research in the field of life-threatening illnesses and sepsis. Our multidisciplinary approach breaks down silos between research domains and fosters meaningful collaborations among early career researchers, established investigators, and key community members, including patient and family partners

Our program's core values emphasize creating a safe and inclusive learning environment, integrating equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) principles, and promoting anti-oppressive practices and social justice.

Key features of our program include:

  • Interactive Curriculum: Tailored online modules and workshops designed to build research capacity and to develop both professional and personal skills.

  • Mentorship Pods: Small group mentorship groups to foster close professional connections.

  • Funded Research Practicum: An experiential learning opportunity for trainees where they are guided by a supervisor.

  • Annual Symposium: A fully covered, in-person event with keynote speakers, workshops, and networking opportunities.

  • Trainee Award Competition: Funding of $25,000 awarded to three research proposals per stream.
