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.

Quantum coherence probes of electronic dynamics
988615
The Project will make use of a revolution in ultrafast laser technology – Ultrafast X-ray Photonics – combined with computational quantum dynamics to permit the direct observation and characterization of quantum electronic dynamics. Canada is a world leader in Ultrafast X-ray Photonics and the CFI has invested nearly $25M in ultrafast X-ray science infrastructure at the INRS-Varennes and the University of Ottawa.

On-chip true time delay optical beamforming for RF phased arrays
969511
The Project will address key issues encountered with conventional electronic beamforming networks (BFN) used in space-based Radio-Frequency phased array antennas, popular in recent low cost, large, Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellation projects. It will evaluate feasibility of using photonic integrated circuits to implement an innovative BFN architecture. A higher level of integration in photonic circuits leads to smaller BFN dimensions and lower cost. It will implement also true time delay within the BFN, which eliminates frequency specific behavior of beam shaping. Large bandwidth performances will be much improved over wide scan angles for operations in LEO.

AI-Driven Decision Support System for Clinical Electroencephalography (EEG) and Medical Records
988617
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is quickly penetrating healthcare, but the routine neurological assessment of patients at the primary point of care is still missing AI-enhanced neurologist-like approaches to deal with the complexity of all its data. Developing such AI tools is the focus of the Project, which seeks to address the primary question of whether a novel state-of-the-art machine learning approach, applied to routine clinical EEGs recorded in hospital, can support a more accurate diagnosis with higher efficiency for all categories of patients requiring neurological assessment at the primary point of care. The team will develop a prototype system to support experts in reviewing EEG data. The novel system will utilize state-of-the-art AI methods to identify key diagnostic and outcome-predictive features in the EEG data. The aim is to design AI systems to enhance workflow in data-intensive and time-sensitive settings.
