Below are some testimonials from CARF Award Recipients:
“The CAS Research Award was instrumental in development of my laboratory. As my first award it provided essential funds for the purchase of equipment and supplies. These awards are a true leg-up for young anesthesiologists who hope to establish research programs in a competitive granting environment.” - Dr. Beverley Orser, University of Toronto
“The peer recognition that is afforded by CARF grants has enabled me to take the simple ideas with which research begins and develop them into a full neuroscience research program.” - Dr. David Archer, University of Calgary
“The Canadian Anesthesiologists’ Society Research Award was very instrumental in my continuing a research path at Dalhousie. With the information obtained from the experiments funded, by the CAS, I was able to convince external funding agencies of the importance of the work and funding was then received.” - Dr. Richard Hall, Dalhousie University
“I am very pleased to report that our manuscript entitled "Priming of
hypoxia inducible factor by neuronal nitric oxide synthase is essential
for adaptive responses to severe anemia" has been accepted for
publication in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences."
"As current and past Chair of CAS Research Advisory Committee, I would
like to express my deepest appreciation to the CAS and CARF for their
invaluable and longstanding support of our research.”
- Dr. Greg Hare, University of Toronto
"With the help of the Canadian Anesthesiologists’ Society, we will continue our research, and with more exciting new data, we will be in a better position to apply for other grants.”
- Dr. Gilbert Blaise, University of Montreal
“The CAS Research Award allowed me to initiate my research career and subsequently to secure funding from the Heart and Stroke Foundation in establishing myself as an independent investigator.”
