Bourses d'études supérieures pour la recherche sur la schizophrénie et la psychose
Chaque année, en partenariat avec la Fondation de la Société canadienne de schizophrénie, le CCIPP est heureux d'offrir des bourses d'études supérieures axées sur la recherche sur la schizophrénie et la psychose. Ce financement pluriannuel vise à offrir une allocation aux étudiants de doctorat et de maîtrise qui poursuivent des recherches visant à identifier les causes de la schizophrénie et des psychoses associées ou à développer de nouvelles interventions pour les traiter. Ces recherches peuvent porter sur les aspects biomédicaux ou psychosociaux de la schizophrénie et de la psychose.
