Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is a member of the parvovirus family of single-stranded small DNA viruses that require a helper virus, such as adenovirus or herpes simplex virus for replication. Although the majority of the population is seropositive for AAV, the virus is not associated with any pathology in humans. 3, record 1, English, - adeno%2Dassociated%20virus

Adeno-associated virus(AAV) is unique in the viral world because it has never been shown to have any pathogenic effects in humans, and most of the population has been exposed to AAV early in life.

The CAHR Program is one of several transition programs launched in October of 1999 leading to the creation of CIHR. The intent of the CAHR Program is to foster excellent research of relevance to community groups and agencies in the four themes of health research : biomedical, clinical, health services and systems and population health including the social, cultural and environmental determinants of health. The program facilitates mutual learning and collaboration among community organizations and partnerships with researchers based in local universities, hospitals and other not-for-profit institutions. In addition to contributing to the improved health quality of life in communities involved in CAHRs, the program provides unique opportunities for training of health researchers in all disciplines. 1, record 8, English, - Community%20Alliances%20for%20Health%20Research%20Program

Le Programme des ACRS est l'un des nombreux programmes de transition inaugurés en octobre 1999 qui ont conduit à la création des IRSC. Le but visé dans le cadre du Programme des ACRS est de favoriser des recherches de grande qualité qui seraient utiles à des groupes et organismes communautaires, dans le cadre des quatre thèmes de la recherche en santé : la recherche biomédicale, la recherche clinique, la recherche sur les services et systèmes de santé, ainsi que la recherche sur la santé des populations, incluant les déterminants sociaux, culturels et environnementaux de la santé. Le programme favorise l'apprentissage et la collaboration mutuels entre des organismes communautaires ainsi que l'établissement de partenariats avec des chercheurs travaillant dans des universités, des hôpitaux et d'autres établissements à but non lucratif d'une région. En plus de contribuer à l'amélioration de la santé et de la qualité de vie dans les collectivités participant aux ACRS, le programme fournit des occasions uniques de formation aux chercheurs en santé de toutes les disciplines. 1, record 8, French, - Programme%20des%20alliances%20communautaires%20pour%20la%20recherche%20en%20sant%C3%A9

Cladogenesis defines those cases of evolution in which one species develops into two or more through adaptation. The classic example is the different species unique to the Galapagos Islands, where small populations of creatures from South America evolved in response to their new ecosystem.... There is disagreement about what constitutes a new species, but it's generally agreed that if the mating of individuals from different populations cannot result in fertile and viable offspring, then they belong to different species. Cladogenesis explains the development of a large assortment of species from a smaller set of ancestral species through evolution. Unlike anagenesis, speciation through cladogenesis does not require the extinction of the ancestral population. Through successive cladogenetic splits, either with or without the extinction of the ancestral population, the total number of species increases over time. Cladogenesis is probably a more common form of evolution and speciation than anagenesis. 2, record 11, English, - cladogenesis

The proposed primary goal of CHRIMCY are to initiate, support and disseminate excellence in peer-reviewed research encompassing the critical stages of life, including preconception, pregnancy, fetal and newborn development, and growth and development throughout childhood and adolescence. These primary goals define the nature of research that would be supported by the proposed institute, and clearly distinguish this institute from others that may form within the CIHR. Research would be conducted in the fields of basic biomedical science, clinical and applied health, health services and health care systems, and population health, with a particular focus on the determinants of health. The proposed main objectives of CHRIMCY is to reinforce individual investigator initiatives by aiding in the formation of networks of research teams that would cross disciplines, institutions, regions and the country. This includes providing mechanisms for researchers to work across the institutes of the CIHR. CHRIMCY would have the unique mandate and framework to identify reserach themes and to harness reserach expertise cross the country, and to focus on priority issues affecting the health of mothers, children and youth. 3, record 12, English, - Canadian%20Health%20Research%20Institute%20for%20Mother%2C%20Child%20and%20Youth
