Turning Your CV into a Compelling Narrative: A Tri-agency CV Workshop
by Van Rootselaar, Nicole 08 May '25

08 May '25

Overview: In October 2024, the Tri-agencies released a statement that narrative CVs, also called the "Tri-agency CV" would be required for future applications. Since this announcement, select competitions (SSHRC Impact Award, CIHR Catalysts, NSERC Discovery Horizons) have tested the narrative CV format. A full-rollout date is not confirmed, but the Tri-agencies hinted Spring 2026 as a possible implementation deadline for major grants. Upcoming Tri-agency grant competitions may choose to use the TCV format. For example, the CIHR Planning and Dissemination grant for Summer 2025 requires the TCV format. Join ORIS for an interactive workshop where you'll learn about the narrative CV format and begin crafting your own research narrative. Through guided activities and discussion, you will gain practical tools and feedback to help you prepare for this important update. We recommend bringing your laptop and a copy of a recent CV. Presenters: Nicole van Rootselaar and Nancy Barajas Jaimes, ORIS Audience: Faculty members and trainees Materials: Laptop and a digital copy of your CV Disciplines: Health and Life Sciences Social Sciences and Humanities Natural Sciences and Engineering Date: June 4, 2025 | 10:00 to 11:30 am Venue: AH 177 Please reach out if you are unable to attend in person, but you would still like to participate in the workshop.

Sign-Up for CIHR Fall 2025 Project Grant Working Group
by ORIS, Health and Medical Sciences 01 May '25

01 May '25

Good afternoon everyone, Welcome to the Spring semester! I know you are just starting to enjoy the sunshine and longer days, but the purpose of this email is to remind you that Fall is around the corner, and the Fall Project Grant Competition will launch on July 3, 2025, and registration is due August 13, 2025. This is only three months away. For the Fall 2024 Project Grant competition, CIHR reported that 258 applications were submitted from Alberta,<https://cihr-irsc.gc.ca/e/54191.html> and 55 were funded. This is a 21.3% success rate (Alberta had the second highest provincial success rate). The median amount awarded in Alberta was $918,000. I would like to beat these 1 in 5 odds this fall. To help you achieve this, ORIS is launching a CIHR Summer Working group. This workgroup will include emails sent twice per month with resources related to a specific topic (all resources will be uploaded to the internal CIHR page<https://uleth.sharepoint.com/sites/research-services/SitePages/CIHR-Project…>). Some of the topics/resources I have prepared include: budgeting worksheet, budgeting tips and information, data management information, knowledge mobilization, and sex and gender and CIHR. Beyond emails and resources, peer review and peer engagement have been shown to increase application success. This summer is a great opportunity to meet monthly (or more frequently) before the registration deadline and discuss some of these topics, possibly share a section from your grant and receive and provide feedback. If you are interested in applying to the Project Grant the fall, or just learning more about the process, please complete this short survey<https://uleth.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_51GUSqRJTL3IVyS> by Monday, May 12. You can also reply to this email to be included in the resource emails. You can also mark your calendars now for a virtual presentation/workshop from Dr. Rob Sutherland on Wednesday, August 6, from 10:00-11:30am. More information and registration will be available closer to the date. Thank you for your time, have a great rest of your week.
