CIHR is Canada's premier federal agency for health research ... The CIHR concept is internationally innovative and involves a multi-disciplinary approach, organized through a frame work of 13 "virtual" institutes ... CIHR's institutes are not centralized "bricks and mortar" facilities. Instead, these "virtual" organizations support and link researchers located in universities, hospitals and other research centres across Canada. The institutes embrace four pillars of research, including biomedical, clinical science, health systems and services, and the social, cultural and other factors that affect the health of populations. 4, record 5, English, - Canadian%20Institutes%20of%20Health%20Research

Le concept des IRSC est très novateur à l'échelle internationale. Il s'agit d'une approche multidisciplinaire, mise en œuvre par l'entremise de 13 instituts «virtuels», chacun œuvrant dans un domaine particulier, réunissant et appuyant des chercheurs poursuivant des objectifs communs [...] Les instituts des IRSC ne sont pas des établissements «de briques et de mortier». Il s'agit d'organisations «virtuelles» qui appuient et mettent en contact les chercheurs travaillant dans les universités, les hôpitaux et d'autres centres de recherche partout au Canada. Les instituts des IRSC portent sur les quatre domaines suivants : recherche biomédicale, recherche clinique, systèmes et services de santé, et facteurs sociaux, culturels et autres qui influent sur la santé de la population. 6, record 5, French, - Instituts%20de%20recherche%20en%20sant%C3%A9%20du%20Canada
