bwf's career awards at the scientific interface (casi) provide $500,000 over five years to bridge advanced postdoctoral training and the first three years of faculty service. these awards are open to u.s. and canadian citizens, permanent residents, and temporary residents

gold roof award for knowledge to action recognizes initiatives that close the gap between what is known from excellent research and what is done with that knowledge in the housing sector.

specifically, this research:

• acknowledge innovative initiatives that have made outstanding contributions to the national housing strategy’s priority areas
• leads to demonstrable impacts within the academic community or the housing sector

a cash award of $10,000 is given to the researcher, the research team, or the organization that undertook the initiative. it is to be used to promote and extend the work being honoured.

if this award is of interest, please contact dr. batia stolar, associate vice-president, research & graduate studies, at avp.research@lakeheadu.ca for more information.

partnership development grants are expected to respond to the objectives of the insight and/or the connection programs.

these grants provide support over one to three years to teams/partnerships, led by a project director, to:

• develop research and/or related activities in the social sciences and humanities—these can include knowledge mobilization and the meaningful involvement of 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and emerging scholars, by fostering new partnerships with existing and/or potential partners; or
• design and test new partnership approaches for research and/or related activities that can result in best practices or models—these can either be adapted by others or have the potential to be scaled up to a regional, national or international level.

partnership funding is intended for formal partnerships between postsecondary institutions and/or organizations of various types. for more information, see the definitions for formal partnership and partner organization.

the natural sciences and engineering research council of canada (nserc) and the european commission (ec), under the banner of  horizon europe  (horizon-cl4-2021-digital-emerging-01-23: international cooperation with canada [ria]), are partnering on a call for research proposals on quantum technologies. as our dependence on an increasingly digital society grows, quantum science presents considerable opportunities for new insights, discoveries, technological developments and applications that cut across disciplines and can have impacts in many sectors of the economy and society, globally.

this call builds on a long tradition of europe-canada (eu-canada) collaboration and complementary interests and research expertise in quantum research. the call will support eu-canada research collaborations to advance the development of quantum technologies. eligible canadian participants will receive funding from nserc to support their involvement in the joint project. it is expected that these jointly funded projects will contribute to the following outcomes:

• advances in quantum technologies in specific areas of mutual eu-canada interest including quantum computing and simulation, quantum networking and communication, quantum sensing and metrology.
• reinforcement of the eu-canada research excellence in the specific areas of mutual interest described above, including the establishment of strategic partnerships in research, education and training.

natural resources canada’s zero emission vehicle awareness initiative is now accepting applications for funding until august 16, 2021 at 23:59 (eastern daylight time) for projects to be completed no later than march 31, 2023.

this call for proposals seeks proposals for new and innovative projects that aim to address awareness and knowledge gaps among canadians and businesses on zevs and zev technologies, including battery electric, plug-in hybrid electric and hydrogen fuel cell for light, medium and heavy-duty on-road, off-road, and micro-mobility solutions.

• for projects with for-profit organizations, the maximum amount payable by this program can be up to 50% of total project costs.
• for projects with not-for-profit organizations or provincial, territorial, regional or municipal governments or their departments or agencies where applicable, the maximum amount payable by the program can be up to 75% of total project costs.
• for projects where the proponent is an indigenous organization, indigenous community or a registered indigenous business, the maximum amount payable by this program can be up to 75% of total project costs, regardless of whether they are for-profit or not.

the specific objectives of this funding opportunity are:

• to provide recognition and funding to academic health research trainees;
• to provide a reliable supply of highly skilled and qualified researchers.

the specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:

• improve the understanding of the causes, defining measures, and avenues for prevention, detection and management of sleep deprivation and insomnia, including in the context of health disparities, and indigenous peoples' health and well-being, through coordinated data collection and research activities across the cihr research pillars to co-create new knowledge and technical and scientific expertise;
• accelerate the iterative, bi-directional translation of research results and evidence into practice for improved health and well-being associated with poor sleep hygiene and insomnia;
• develop, implement, evaluate, and validate interventions that foster improved sleep health and well-being as they relate to insomnia and sleep deprivation, evaluate outcomes of interventions, and accelerate the mobilization of research evidence of best, promising, and wise practices to bridge gaps between research outcomes and health impacts for the betterment of sleep; and
• build, foster, and promote relevant sleep research capacity, including training, career development, and experiential opportunities through a high-quality, multidisciplinary capacity development and mentoring environment that actively engages trainees and researchers at all career stages and across  ethnicities, including indigenous investigators.
