ATTENTION Canadian researchers and IRs: The Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) has announced that it will release next week a Request for Proposals that seeks grant applications from researchers to conduct an early-phase clinical trial in Canada to test the ability of a surgical procedure called balloon venoplasty to improve blood drainage in individuals with MS who have been identified as having CCSVI. The request for research proposals is a collaborative initiative between the CIHR and the MS Society of Canada.
