Research in Clinical Assessment grant
To support medical assessment research, the MCC offers research grants to interested faculty members, staff members or graduate students of Canadian medical faculties.
About the grant
The Research in Clinical Assessment grant is intended to support and provide a principal investigator with the financial resources required to further complete their research while promoting the Medical Council of Canada (MCC) vision of ensuring that physicians have the competencies to support safe, accessible health care in Canada. It is a single-year, curiosity-driven grant provided up to a value of $37,500.
Competition process
The purpose and priorities for each year are also reviewed and updated on an annual basis. Grant applications are peer-reviewed, and the adjudication committee makes the final decision based upon the reviews and the declared funding priorities of the competition for that year.
Application for the grant usually opens in the fall and closes in the winter. The deadline for the 2025 grant competition is February 1, 2025.
