Syme Research Training Awards Applications Now Being Accepted

The Institute for Work & Health (IWH) is now accepting applications for its 12-month S. Leonard Syme Research Training Awards in Work and Health.

The awards are for young researchers at the master’s or doctoral level intending to study work and health. Preference is given to candidates whose research interests closely align with IWH’s current research and topic areas. IWH is particularly interested in candidates whose research addresses the prevention of work-related injury and illness, and the prevention and management of disability at work in Ontario. In the spirit of Dr. Syme’s own contributions to research mentorship, candidates from any disciplinary background are eligible for training awards. A maximum of three training awards may be offered. Awards are based on the merit of the research proposed.

The deadline for applications is May 5, 2023.
