Research projects being conducted by MBP researchers Dr. Shane Harding and Dr. Rama Khokha have received funding from the Canadian Foundation for Innovation (CFI).
CFI grants funds that will assist exceptional university scientists in conducting leading-edge research, by giving them the tools and equipment they need to become leaders in their field.
"For more than 20 years, the CFI has been giving researchers the tools they need to think big and innovate. And a robust innovation system translates into jobs and new enterprises, better health, cleaner environments and, ultimately, vibrant communities. By investing in state-of-the-art facilities and equipment in Canada’s universities, colleges, research hospitals and non-profit research institutions, the CFI also helps to attract and retain the world’s top talent, to train the next generation of researchers and to support world-class research that strengthens the economy and improves the quality of life for all Canadians". - The Canadian Foundation for Innovation.
