GROWW is a Health Research Training Platform (HRTP) supported by CIHR and IHDCYH. The Cohort program annually accepts a group of 20 clinical trainees, graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and ECRs from across Canada chosen through a competitive application process. The GROWW program strives to positively impact the lives of all people who identify as women and to inspire individuals who are dedicated to propelling women’s health. This 2-year training program will include seminars from academics within the field of women's and girls' health, experiential learning opportunities and workshops, mentorship partners, a fall institute, and professional networking to help co-create new research and/or employment opportunities. Application information can be found on the website.
