the national wetland conservation fund (nwcf) supports canadians in undertaking on-the-ground activities to restore and enhance wetlands in canada. these activities must take place on private lands, municipal lands, provincial crown lands, federal crown lands in the northwest territories, yukon, and nunavut, or aboriginal land across canada.

the nwcf is one of several funding programs operated by environment canada for the conservation of natural habitats and wildlife. you can only receive funding from one federal funding program for each proposed activity. any proposals submitted to the other federal funding programs, (habitat stewardship program, aboriginal fund for species at risk, ecoaction, etc.) must be for different activities than those listed in your nwcf proposal.

timelines

the program will be accepting expressions of interest until december 18, 2015. the submission of an expression of interest is strongly encouraged, particularly for applicants who have not received nwcf funding in the past.

the deadline for proposal submissions is january 15, 2016

the operating grants competition is the principal means by which the cancer research society fulfills its mission to support fundamental, early translational and environment-cancer research on all types of cancer in order to contribute to the advancement of science aimed at preventing, detecting and treating this disease.

the canadian tree fund (ctf) is a registered canadian charity established to promote arboriculture research in canada. research grants have been awarded nationwide for worthy projects. individuals and/or agencies are invited to submit proposals for consideration. the scope of your proposal can vary in size with this grant being the sole source of funding or one of a variety of sources. the project will be evaluated with regard for the goals of the tree fund as a whole and the impact that can be made with each grant.

ontario genomics is pleased to announce that genome canada, in partnership with the canadian institutes of health research (cihr), is seeking proposals for research projects to address any aspect of bioinformatics and computational biology (b/cb) as it relates to genomics. proposals with applications across all of genome canada’s sectors are welcome. these include agriculture & agri-food, fisheries & aquaculture, forestry, energy, environment, human health and mining.

genome canada has identified b/cb as a priority area with the goal to create an environment that supports the creation and evolution of enhanced b/cb tools and methodologies. in august 2015, a b/cb advisory committee struck by genome canada and cihr released a consultative version of a strategic framework for the future of b/cb in canada. this competition builds on genome canada’s 2012 b/cb competition, also in partnership with cihr, and seeks to advance the objectives of the proposed b/cb national strategy.

the major objectives of this request for applications (rfa) are to:

1. support the development of next generation bioinformatics and computational biology tools and methodologies that will be required by the research community to deal with the influx of large amounts of data produced by modern genomics technologies; and,
2. provide broad access of these new bioinformatics and computational biology tools to the research community.

competition timeline

a limited number of travel awards to phd or md/phd 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 , and post-doctoral/medical/clinical fellows are available. the purpose of this program is to defray the travel costs associated with making a scientific presentation as a first author or presenter at a conference, symposium or other appropriate professional meeting.

the ontario institute for cancer research (oicr) announces the availability of three funding opportunities
for research fellowships in transformative pathology. these awards have been created to increase the
opportunities for training pathologists in the area of molecular diagnostic pathology in ontario. trainees
will be located either at an ontario hospital or at oicr, and their training program will be established in
collaboration with the oicr transformative pathology program.
the transformative pathology fellowship has three streams:
1. full fellowship (three years)
2. intermediate/cip fellowship (two years)
3. introductory fellowship (six months)

full fellowship:
• must hold a medical degree and be currently enrolled in a speciality education program in
pathology in ontario, or have recently completed a residency program in pathology; and/or
• currently certified by the royal college of physicians and surgeons of canada in a field of speciality
in pathology and have received an offer for a full-time faculty or equivalent position in an ontariobased
institution.
intermediate fellowship:
• applicants should be in postgraduate years 3-5; and
• must be accepted into a clinician investigator program at their host institution.
introductory fellowship:
• applicants should be in postgraduate years 3-5; and
• must receive formal approval to participate in the transformative pathology fellowship program
from their host institution prior to applying

please distribute to 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 , faculty, and international contacts.

mitacs is now accepting applications for competitive international research opportunities, including student travel to and from canada. the deadline to apply is november 20, 2015, at 5 p.m. pst.
