Holistic Health Research Foundation of Canada — September 2010 research competition in massage therapy

Massage Therapists' Association of British Columbia — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 19:13:48 +0000

Through its Massage Therapy Research Fund (MTRF), the Holistic Health Research Foundation of Canada invites applications in:

clinical research (primary focus)
mechanisms of action and policy issues (secondary focus)

A total funding amount of $50,000 is offered. Grant applications up to $15,000 will be considered.

Studies may be qualitative, quantitative, or mixed method. Initially, funding preference will be given to smaller, pilot, or creative study designs. In this way, the MTRF aims to assist the scientific and massage communities in building a foundation for the eventual construction of more complicated research projects. The MTRF encourages applications that also seek funding from other sources.
The principal investigator must be affiliated with a Canadian charitable institution (university or hospital) that is willing to administer the finances of the grant. Funds are awarded to the charitable institution, not to an individual. The research team may include members affiliated with a non-Canadian institution. One member of the research team should be a massage therapist. Students at the masters level and above are encouraged to apply.

Deadline to receive submissions is Thursday, September 30, 2010 at 5 p.m. ET. Applicants will be notified of the status of their applications by December 15, 2010.

Application forms and instructions can be downloaded at www.massagetherapyresearch.ca
