In addition to the funding from our partners, Research Manitoba is thrilled to announce that we are solely funding 15 PhD Health Research Studentship Awards this competition cycle. This is the first time since 2017 that Research Manitoba has been able to provide students at the PhD level with Research Manitoba funds.
