Joint Grant Awards Program

The Joint Grant Awards Program (JGAP) supports research that poses questions of high relevance to Family Medicine.

The maximum award for JGAP grants has been increased from $30,000 to $50,000. Applications for smaller-scale studies with lower costs are also welcome.

The program goals are to:

Support research of value to the practicing family physician
Encourage proposals by junior investigators
Fund pilot studies

JGAP applications are accepted twice a year:
