10 health stories that mattered: Dec. 1–5
2015
Overview
* Health researchers are upset about a \" secretive and disrespectful\" decision at the Canadian Institutes of Health Research that would force scientists to \"knock on doors\" for external funding before they can access public money, reports CBC News. Speaking off the record, a member of one of the institute's advisory boards told CBC the reason for the change is to \"push scientists to commercialize,\" at the expense of long-term basic science. * The recently announced government funding for research into the mental health of military veterans is \"a very, very meagre amount of money,\" Dr. Ibolja Cemak, the chair in Military and Veterans' Clinical Rehabilitation at the University of Alberta, told The Globe and Mail. It will amount to about $1.1 million a year, an insufficient amount to conduct the basic science and clinical research needed to address a large and growing problem, according to Cemak. * H5 avian influenza has been confirmed on two poultry farms in British Columba. \"The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has placed the two farms under quarantine to control disease spread and the industry sector has been notified to adopt enhanced biosecurity practices,\" announced the federal government.
