The Government of Canada has announced a $37.6M investment over five years to support Indigenous health research through the renewal of the Network Environments for Indigenous Health Research (NEIHR). This funding, delivered through the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, will strengthen the nine NEIHR centres across the country, assist the NEIHR National Coordinating Centre, and expand the NEIHR program into the Yukon.
