Abstract

The Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) has recently developed a major strategic initiative in the areas of regenerative medicine and nanomedicine. The present article presents a preliminary analysis of nanomedicine funding at CIHR (2000-2005), using a moderately stringent definition of nanomedicine.
