Dear Members of the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences,

 

I am pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Christine Doucette as Director of Grant Development (CIHR) for the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences.

 

Dr. Christine Doucette is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physiology and Pathophysiology, Max Rady College of Medicine, and a Principal Investigator within the DREAM Research Theme at the Children’s Hospital Research Institute of Manitoba (CHRIM). She leads an internationally recognized, CIHR- and NSERC-funded research program in metabolic and endocrine physiology, with a focus on pancreatic islet biology, diabetes, and the earliest physiological origins of metabolic disease. Dr. Doucette brings extensive experience in peer review through service on numerous national and international grant review panels, including CIHR, Diabetes Canada, Diabetes UK and the CIHR-Netherlands Research Consortium. She currently serves as Chair of the CIHR Diabetes, Obesity and Lipids Peer Review Committee and has extensive experience mentoring investigators in grant development, peer review, and research funding.

 

In her role as Director of Grant Development (CIHR), Dr. Doucette will provide strategic guidance and support to faculty members across the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences, with the goal of strengthening the competitiveness, clarity, and overall impact of CIHR applications.

 

I would also like to extend sincere thanks to Dr. Jim Nagy and Dr. Lorrie Kirshenbaum for their dedicated service and valuable contributions to strengthening research funding success within the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences.
