Researchers at the Toronto Rehabilitation Institute (TRI) are invited to submit applications for a Tier 2 Canada Research Chair. Applicants must hold an appointment at TRI at the level of Scientist. The successful candidate will be nominated by TRI for the next Canada Research Chair competition.

 

Tier 2 Canada Research Chairs are for emerging scholars. They should, at minimum, be assistant or associate professors, or possess the necessary qualifications to be appointed to these levels. To meet the criteria of the program, nominees must be no more than 10 years from their PhD degree at the time of the nomination. Applicants who are more than 10 years from having earned their highest degree (and where career breaks exist, such as maternity, parental or extended sick leave, clinical training, etc.) may have their eligibility for a Tier 2 chair assessed through the program’s Tier 2 justification process (further information here).
