CIHR OPERATING GRANT AWARDED

November 2024

Our 4-year project, titled “Optimizing HPV vaccination programs in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMIC) and Canada to reduce inequalities and reach global elimination of cervical cancer: An integrated knowledge translation dynamic-modeling approach” has been funded with $1 million by the The Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR). This project aims to identify optimal HPV vaccination strategies that can accelerate global CC elimination and reduce health inequalities, considering the opportunities provided by 1-dose vaccination. We will collaborate with decision-makers/researchers from 5 LMICs (Benin, Côte d’Ivoire, Thailand, Laos, Colombia) and 2 high-income countries (HICs), Canada and the US.
