IDIGH-CRP Joint Research Day: A Step Towards Vision 2030
The IDIGH-CRP Joint Research Day was directly inspired by the Institute’s ambitious Vision 2030, presented last fall by Dr. Ryan Touyz. Since the 2015 opening of the Glen site, both the IDIGH and CRP programs have been at the forefront of their respective fields, consistently delivering impactful events like research days, symposia, and workshops.
On January 28, 2025, despite the biting cold, IDIGH trainees gathered at the McGill University Faculty Club to discuss career paths. As usual, program co-leader Ciro Piccirillo was the first to arrive to welcome the participants. Soon after, the organizing team Rojine McVea, Cal Koger-Pease, Andressa Brito Lira, Sanya Kapoor, Maysaloun Mokaddam, Vicky Barrera, and Eric Béliveau joined to finalize the preparations for a busy day ahead.
The 2025 IDIGH Holiday Celebration was a wonderful success, bringing together IDIGH members for a time filled with holiday cheer, delicious food, and creative fun. The event was made possible through the hard work of the CREC Committee, and we are grateful to everyone who contributed to making this gathering special.
Dr. Marina Klein, a senior scientist in the Infectious Diseases and Immunity in Global Health Program and Centre for Outcomes Research and Evaluation at the RI-MUHC, has been awarded a $25 million grant from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR). This funding will enable her to lead the transformation of the Pan-Canadian HIV/AIDS Clinical Trials Network (CTN) into the expanded CTN+.
