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.

Understanding the molecular and functional heterogeneity of human meniscus fibrochondrocytes and microtissue models under simulated microgravity and
hypergravity
25HLSRM5
The pair of menisci in each knee joint protects the cartilage of the joint from excessive stress and enables humans to walk or run with stable knees. However, the meniscus is prone to traumatic tears, especially during sports-related activities, with very little ability to repair itself and presenting a major risk for developing knee osteoarthritis. Recent work from the research team shows that the cells making up the meniscus are diverse. Some cells exhibit features that can repair the meniscus, some display osteoarthritis-like response to space’s low gravity and others show superior ability to make the proteins that support meniscus’ mechanical function in the knee. The research team will study the diverse population of human meniscus cells after exposure to low and high gravity conditions of spaceflight missions using a specialized machine to replicate the gravity conditions of spaceflight missions. They hope their work will shed light on meniscus repair and osteoarthritis.
