Health System Impact Program — Embedded Early Career Researcher Award: Partner Linkage Tool
Overview
The Health System Impact (HSI) Program's Embedded Early Career Researcher Award supports a highly skilled cadre of early career embedded scholars with the knowledge, skills, and capabilities to lead and contribute to high-performing learning health systems and evidence-informed health systems improvements.
The Partner Linkage Tool, below, is intended to facilitate connections between applicants and organizations that have expressed interest in hosting doctoral trainees and/or post-doctoral researchers. The Partner Linkage Tool includes brief profiles of health system organizations interested in partnering and their priorities of interest. Applicants are invited to review these profiles and submit expressions of interest (EOI) to organizations.
This is not a mandatory tool. Applicants may pursue opportunities with profiled organizations and/or organizations that are not profiled but that meet the definition of "health system and related organization" as defined in the funding opportunities.
Information is provided on a volunteer basis and does not confer any advantages in the evaluation and funding of applications.
Are you a health system organization looking to host a fellow? Fill out our Partner Linkage Tool online form. Profiles will be posted once the competition launches, and the table will be updated regularly thereafter until the application deadline.

Instructions for applicants
- Step 1: Explore potential partner organizations and submit expressions of interest: Interested applicants are encouraged to review the partner organization profiles and submit an EOI to organizations of interest. Multiple EOIs are permitted, however applicants must ultimately confirm one partner organization and submit a CIHR application with that organization. Tip: Do this early. Do not leave it to the last minute. It takes time to build a meaningful partnership and to then co-develop a CIHR application. Partner organizations will accept EOIs and make commitments on an ongoing basis, so reach out early on.
- Step 2: Expression of interest requirements: The EOI must be sent by email (see the contact details in the partner organization's profile) and must include, in addition to a general introduction and purpose statement, the applicant's CV (professional CV, not Common CV). Organizations will use this for initial screening. Organizations may request additional information from the applicant. Tip: Tailor your EOIs to each organization. Clearly specify why you are interested in a particular organization and the added value you believe you can bring to the organization's impact goals.
- Step 3: Meet with organizations: Organizations will respond to all EOIs received and invite the candidate(s) of potential interest for a meeting (or multiple meetings) to discuss interests and ideas and explore fit (i.e., by phone, web or in-person). Organizations will conduct an internal assessment and selection process. Candidates, similarly, may meet with multiple organizations and conduct their own assessment and selection of the optimal partner organization for their personal career goals and interests. Organizations and candidates are encouraged to discuss and ensure shared understanding of the organizational impact goal, the candidate's fellowship goal, the dual-mentorship model and approach (with the health system and academic supervisor), mentorship and supportive resources, organizational policies (e.g., benefits, in-person/hybrid/remote work, confidentiality), output goals (e.g., scholarly and other outputs), prior to committing to the partnership.
- Step 4: Confirm partnership and develop application: When a mutual fit is confirmed between a candidate and an organization, an email between the two will officially verify the partnership. The candidate and partner organization will, at this stage, co-develop the CIHR application. Tip: Review the applicable funding opportunity Evaluation Criteria and How to Apply sections in detail. The funding opportunities are the official resource for application details and requirements.

Institut national d'excellence en santé et en services sociaux (INESSS) Québec Marie-Hélène Chastenay demande@inesss.qc.ca |
L'INESSS a pour mission de promouvoir l'excellence clinique et l'utilisation efficace des ressources dans le secteur de la santé et des services sociaux. Pour réaliser ses évaluations, l'Institut mobilise les données publiées dans la littérature scientifique, celles issues des milieux de soins et services telles les données clinico-administratives, de même que les connaissances et les expériences des personnes concernées, comme les professionnel(le)s et gestionnaires du réseau ainsi que les patient(e)s, usagers, usagères et proches aidant(e)s, dans une perspective d'amélioration des soins et services à la population. |
L'une des priorités organisationnelles de l'INESSS, qui compte sur les compétences de près de 300 employés, est d'assurer le développement de son expertise interne afin de bien remplir sa mission d'aide à la décision, et ceci, en temps opportun. À cette fin, ses trois directions scientifiques réalisent des mandats d'évaluation dans les domaines du médicament, des services de santé et des services sociaux. Ces trois domaines requièrent des compétences de pointe sur une grande diversité d'objets, incluant :

L'Institut a identifié le sujet prioritaire suivant : consolider l'intégration des méthodes d'analyses économiques dans ses processus de production scientifique. Le projet visé s'appuiera sur les compétences de recherche en économie de la santé du ou de la candidat(e) pour aider l'INESSS à mieux appuyer les capacités méthodologiques de ses équipes scientifiques. Les processus d'évaluation et les processus délibératifs de l'INESSS sont structurés autour d'un cadre multidimensionnel d'appréciation de la valeur, tel que décrit dans son Énoncé de principes et de fondements éthiques (in French only) [ PDF (1.17 MB) - external link ]. Ce cadre comprend une dimension économique qui est bien intégrée dans les évaluations du médicament à des fins de remboursement, en s'appuyant notamment sur des expertises en pharmaco-économie. La dimension économique pose cependant des défis pour d'autres secteurs d'évaluation (p. ex., modes d'intervention complexes en santé mentale ou santé physique). En travaillant de concert avec l'équipe du Bureau – Méthodes, données et éthique (in French only) de l'INESSS, la personne retenue mènera son projet d'apprentissage et d'intégration des compétences dans le cadre d'un projet mené au sein de l'une de nos Directions scientifiques (voir la colonne de gauche). La personne retenue visera à atteindre les objectifs suivants :
Pour y arriver, le ou la candidat(e) mettra en application plusieurs compétences spécifiques en économie de la santé et s'appuiera sur une connaissance générale des :
La personne retenue sera soutenue par un duo de gestionnaires expérimentés en matière de méthodologie et d'évaluation. |
