IA Knowledge mobilization

Knowledge mobilization is an umbrella term that includes a wide range of activities related to both the production and use of research results. Our goal is to make CIHR-IA-funded research and information accessible, understandable, and useful for the research community, community groups, partners, decision makers, health care professionals and older adults and caregivers.

In the table below you will find articles, profiles, reports, webinars, and other content from CIHR-IA-funded research.
