CASN offers research grants for researchers from members schools, and we are developing a roster of volunteer reviewers to assess the submissions.

The following information can help you decide if you would like to contribute your expertise in advancing nursing research in Canada:

• Reviewers must have secured funding external to their college/university as Principal Investigators (PIs), and they must have conducted several research studies themselves, so they have a solid understanding of the research grant funding and study execution processes.
• English submissions have a 10 pages limit (12 pages for French submissions), excluding required attachments.
• Reviewers can expect three (3) to five (5) reviews annually, and they are usually done in May.
• Reviewers normally have at least four (4) to six (6) weeks to complete and submit their reviews to CASN.

If you would like to be added to the roster of reviewers, please complete the Information for Reviewers of Research Grant Submissions form and return it to Andrea Harvey, CASN Senior Educational Initiatives and Policy Coordinator, at aharvey@casn.ca. You can also contact Andrea if you have any questions or comments.
