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.

Artificial Intelligence for Design and Development of Novel Bioactive Flavonoids
997415
To build an effective computer-aided drug design pipeline to screen large libraries of bioactive compounds into smaller clusters of predicted active molecules that will present improved biological properties (bioavailability, efficacy and affinity for target proteins). It will focus on generating molecules that will be filtered on their calculated physiochemical properties to select the most drug-like analogs with structural similarity to existing cannflavins and exhibiting optimal ligand-target interactions. The predictive power of this platform accelerates the selection of promising lead compounds, provide insight into drug-receptor interactions and is beneficial in terms of cost savings, time-to-market and product portfolio expansion.
