Mental Health Research Canada and SHRF are proud to support early career researchers and students in mental health and foster an early connection between researchers, service providers, and people with lived experience through the MHRC 2022 Studentships. The studentship opportunities are designed to support the student through an 6-month research project that is co-supervised both by an academic supervisor and a community-based service provider.
Three $15,000 studentships were awarded in Saskatchewan. More details about the studentship opportunity and the winners can be found on here: Supporting Canada’s next generation of mental health researchers
