msca staff exchanges - call for applications
how to apply:
the msca staff exchanges program supports mobility of researchers through secondments to academic and industry partners in europe and internationally. the aim of the program is to promote knowledge exchange and skills development, leading to sustainable collaborative projects between organisations from the academic and non-academic sectors (including smes) in europe and beyond. staff exchanges are open to international consortia of universities, research institutions, businesses, smes and other non-academic organizations. currently, canadian research teams can participate under the rules for third party countries - msca funds could be used to support visiting researchers to lakehead (faculty and research staff, including phd 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 ). "staff" can include phd 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and post-doctoral researchers, as well as administrative, technical or managerial staff. secondments can last from one month to one year. graduate 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 of canadian participants in an msca project can participate in outbound mobility through a tier 1 mitacs gra award (no co-pay requirement). projects can last up to four years, and require partners in at least three countries, two of which must be in an eu member state or associated country. for more information, please contact jill sherman, intl.research@lakeheadu.ca.

2022 woo network - call for concepts
how to apply:
the oicr window-of-opportunity network is pleased to release its 2022 call for concepts. details, concept application form, and important deadlines can be found at oicr.on.ca/woo-trial-call-for-concepts.
background:
the woo network was formed in 2020 and is co-led by drs. angel arnaout (the ottawa hospital) and melanie spears (oicr) to propel a clinical-translational research program where novel therapies are quickly tested in cancer patients prior to surgery. the network provides prioritized woo studies with trial development support, funding, translational analysis, and knowledge dissemination. the woo network also builds study capacity through mentoring of new investigators, industry partnerships, patient engagement, data analysis and sharing network expertise.
concept focus:
the initial scientific focus of the network is immunomodulation, to understand the biology of how therapeutics can elicit an immune response and alter the immune environment in tumours. this is critical to make immunotherapy more effective, less toxic, and more durable. please refer to the portfolio concept call [pdf] for more detail.
evaluation criteria:
applications will be accepted from oncology researchers affiliated with not-for-profit research organizations in ontario. concepts will be evaluated based on the following key criteria of woo network trials:
- pre-surgical design
- small, multi-centre, with less than 100 patients
- focus on immunomodulation with identification of novel biomarkers of immune response
- demonstrated drug safety profile
- highly engaged principal investigators and co-investigators, including surgeons and oncologists
- embedded patient partnership
- feasibility for patient accrual completed within two years, with ethics approval, study start-up and first patient accrued within the first two quarters after funding approval
funding available:
up to $450,000 total per trial, over two years.
key dates:
- concept deadline: february 7, 2022, 12 p.m. est

partnership engage grants
how to apply:
partnership engage grants are expected to respond to the objectives of the insight program and the connection program. however, partnership engage grants cannot respond exclusively to the objectives of the connection program.
these grants provide short-term and timely support for partnered research activities that will inform decision-making at a single partner organization from the public, private or not-for-profit sector. the small-scale, stakeholder-driven partnerships supported through partnership engage grants are meant to respond to immediate needs and time constraints facing organizations in non-academic sectors. in addressing an organization-specific need, challenge and/or opportunity, these partnerships let non-academic organizations and postsecondary researchers access each other’s unique knowledge, expertise and capabilities on topics of mutual interest.
