The results from the Fonds de recherche Sant茅-Quebec (FRQS) have been announced and we would like to congratulate the members of our department who have been successful. 听These competitions are very competitive and few are actually successful in obtaining these salary support awards.
Three of our faculty members have received career awards and 5 graduate students were awarded scholarships. 听 By obtaining two Chercheur-boursiers (Sante et Societe), we accounted for 11% of these career awards at the provincial level and 20% of the awards given to 91社区. 听For the students, we accounted for 2% of the provincial awards and 7% of the awards given to 91社区. 听To put this in perspective, the Faculty of Medicine at 91社区 has over 500 researchers and more than 1,000 graduate students so this really is amazing for our Department!
