Previously funded initiatives
Medicine by Design was created in 2015 with a $114-million investment from the federal government’s Canada First Research Excellence Fund (CFREF) to bring together researchers at U of T and its affiliated hospitals at the convergence of science, engineering and medicine to advance regenerative medicine discoveries. Building on a long-standing partnership, Medicine by Design has transitioned in 2025 to become CCRM’s link to the academic research community.
