Grants &
Research
The Black Physicians Association of Ontario (BPAO), through the Black Physician Grants and Research Committee (BPGRC), is dedicated to fostering research that addresses healthcare disparities and advances medical knowledge within the Black community. Through our Grants and Research initiatives, we want to support and empower Black physicians who are actively engaged in medical practice or research. Our goal is to promote collaboration, innovation, and the dissemination of research findings that can lead to improved health outcomes for the Black community.
