FRSQ Research Groups

Research Groups:
Excellence in Our Universities
and Outside Major Centres

Individual fact sheets

The designation "FRQS research group" is reserved for groups of investigators who work somewhere other than in a FRQS-funded research centre hosted by a university-affiliated healthcare institution. This funding program is intended for independent research investigators who already belong to a well funded geographic unit and who form a durable critical mass. FRQS research groups are usually already recognized as research centres by their host institutions and receive funding from those institutions.

Objectives

-To encourage the creation of interdisciplinary health research groups in fields identified by the FRQS as priorities

-To encourage the development of centres of excellence on university campuses and in healthcare institutions located outside major centres, by providing a durable structure and optimal conditions for growth

-To foster synergy among research investigators of recognized excellence and productivity in their fields

-To provide for the stability of those critical masses of investigators

-To tap the health research potential and expertise that exists outside major centres

-To foster synergy among the four areas of health research identified by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), i.e., basic, clinical, population health and health services

Criteria

-An agenda focused on a specific theme, including at least two of the four CIHR research areas

-An independent management structure

-A strategic research development plan
