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.

University Undergraduate Student Research Awards
11020222023Q4214
The Undergraduate Student Research Awards (USRA) are meant to nurture the interest of the students and fully develop their potential for a research career in the natural sciences and engineering. They are also meant to encourage students to undertake graduate studies in these fields. Students who would like to gain research experience in an academic setting, these awards can provide financial support through the hosting university. NSERC encourages qualified Aboriginal students to apply to this program.

Algorithmic Forms Development
1001694
Forms are omni-present in health care. They are used to collect detailed information about a prospective client. Then, a clinician has the time-consuming task of reviewing and interpreting the form contents. This project creates an advanced method to collect and score clinical attributes of prospective clients and adds algorithmic routing to transmit the information to the optimal health service that matches the client needs.

Reagent Procurement Optimization
1003014
BenchSci enables pre-clinical pharmaceutical research scientists to select experimental reagents and model systems based on the documented history of experiments. As history contains a very large number of documented experiments, a “search” can result in a huge number of results. Many factors play into every drug development experiment, making the selection between all options difficult. Today, BenchSci uses a simple historic popularity ranking and this project will replace this ranking with a new ranking that incorporates as many experimental design factors as possible enabled by an ML model. This should create a significantly more accurate ranking without requiring an explicit understanding of every factor in a successful selection.
