Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

The Digital Mouse – a digital twin of behavioral indices of neurodegeneration and associated metabolic determinants for explainable in silico therapy design
1010082
The driving hypothesis of this project is that a digital mouse developed through optimized AI approaches and extensive, available biological data can provide a framework to support the design of evidence- based therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. The main outcome of this project will be an in silico reconstruction and simulation of the dependence of behavior, as a measure of neurodegeneration, on the lipidome and its application in corrective intervention development.

Patent Filings for New Applications of Sona Gold Nanorods for Targeted Hyperthermia Therapy and Other Applications
1015813
Sona Nanotech Inc. has a patented and patent-pending technology for manufacturing biocompatible, toxin-free gold nanorods. The goal of the intellectual property work outlined in this proposal is to enable Sona to file additional patent(s) covering new capabilities of the nanorods. The deliverables of this project will be a patent landscape report that includes patent search details, patent publication level results, patent assignee analysis, subject matter analysis, country analysis, and date analysis. This report will then be used to formulate and refine a strategy for Sona's next patent filings, starting with provisional patent filings to establish a priority date for the inventions disclosed in the application.
