Created in April 2012 by the Fonds de Recherche du Québec – Santé (FRQS), the Research network on cardiometabolic health, diabetes and obesity (CMDO) aims to promote research excellence, knowledge development and knowledge sharing in these areas to improve the quality of life of Quebecers.
The network is calling on master students/doctoral students/postdoctoral fellows/residents to take part in the International multidisciplinary Congress on obesity ZOOM Forward 2022, which will take place from May 4th to 7th 2021 in Maastricht, Netherlands (https://www.zoomforward22.org/). Master students/doctoral students/postdoctoral fellows/ residents from all regular members of the network are invited to participate in this competition. The 5 selected participants will have to make an oral or poster presentation (determined by the congress organization).

For its part, the network will pay $500 per participant to reimburse part of the transportation costs. All other fees will be borne by the participant and / or its director.
