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.

Development of a Cloud-Based Proof-of-Concept for an LLM-based Clinical Decision Intelligence System
1034798
This project will develop a cloud-based proof-of-concept for a Clinical Decision Intelligence system powered by Large Language Models (LLMs), initially focused on cardiovascular applications with potential expansion to other medical specialties. The system will extract clinical information from various document formats, map entities to standardized medical terminologies, and leverage a knowledge graph for contextualized decision support. The prototype will demonstrate interoperability with health data standards while achieving specified performance benchmarks for accuracy, latency, and clinical relevance in cardiology workflows. Success will establish technical feasibility for future commercialization of clinical decision intelligence tools

GA4GH: National Genomics Data Sharing Initiative
187699
The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:
• Advance research to support more accurate data interpretation, diagnosis, and innovative solutions across healthcare through global cooperation in data sharing and clinical implementation of genomics.
• Advance research to create improved frameworks and standards to enable the responsible, voluntary, and secure sharing of genomic and health-related data.
• Promote and facilitate the integration of FAIR principles (WSC: #moreinformation) in data science research endeavours.
• Advance implementation research to reduce both duplication of efforts and promote the collection of compatible research and clinical genomic data and health information to enable global sharing.
• Identify areas of collaboration and resource/expertise sharing.
• Enable national and global data sharing projects using large-scale cohorts to improve research into health and disease.
• Strengthen research excellence and ensure maximum research impact through consideration of diverse biological and/or socio-cultural identity factors in research design, including diverse research methods such as those based in Indigenous ways of knowing.
