the genomic applications partnership program (gapp) funds downstream research and development (r&d) projects that address real world opportunities and challenges defined by “receptor” organizations such as industry, government, or not-for-profit entities. these organizations should have the expertise, resources and commitment to commercialize or implement the outcomes of the project. projects must be active collaborations between the receptor organization (canadian or international) and a canadian academic researcher. both must play an integral role in the project. these projects are co-funded by receptors and other stakeholders and must have the potential to generate significant social and/or economic benefits for canada. the gapp aims to:

• accelerate the application of canadian genomics-derived solutions from academia to real-world opportunities and challenges defined by industry, not-for-profit and public-sector receptors.
• channel canada’s genomics capacity into sustainable innovations that benefit canadians.
• enhance the value of canadian genomics technologies by de-risking and incentivizing follow-on investment from industry and other partners.
• foster mutually beneficial collaboration and knowledge exchange between canadian academia and technology receptors.
