Research Funding Opportunities

Research Funding Opportunities at Perley Health Centre of Excellence

The Perley Health Centre of Excellence in Frailty-Informed Care™ is committed to driving evidence-based solutions that enhance the health and well-being of older Veterans. We achieve this by fostering strategic partnerships and funding innovative, high-impact research.

With a shared mandate for supporting older Veterans, the Perley Health Centre of Excellence and the Canadian Institute for Military and Veteran Health Research (CIMVHR) have established a research partnership fund. We are seeking research projects focused on the Needs of Aging Veterans in Canada, ensuring their support and well-being across all stages of life.

This groundbreaking research is made possible through the generous support of the Perley Health Foundation, The Perley Health Centre of Excellence in Frailty-Informed Care™ and the CIMVHR.
