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.

Blood Biomarker Based Concussion Diagnostics

Agreement Number:

981977

Duration: from Dec 1, 2021 to Mar 31, 2022
Description:

Neurolytixs Inc. has determined that distinct plasma metabolic alterations occur following concussion; glycerophosphocholines (GPC) showed significant decrease in adolescent athletes and four species in particular showed excellent discrimination between concussed and control subjects. Routinely and affordably quantifying these GPCs in plasma can establish a personalized baseline metabolite profile, aid in diagnosing a concussion, and monitor said individuals for safe return to play. Technical Project #1 (approximately 4 months): Optimization of biomarker collection and extraction via dried plasma spot (DPS). Technical Project #2 (approximately 6 months): Optimization of biomarker measurement using mass spectrometry (MS).
