Grants and Contributions

The project aims to contribute to the diversion of plastic pollution in rivers, deltas and oceans at global and national levels using a circular economy approach (a regenerative approach to production and consumption, in which products and materials are redesigned, recovered and reused to reduce environmental impacts).

This project aims to improve the economic well-being of rural women, improve social stability, and reinforce local economies in Northern Jordan. Project activities include: (1) providing training programs to women on advocacy and leadership skills,on project design and implementation; (2) organizing community sensitizations to address negative gender and social norms; (3) supporting women’s group business opportunities; (4) conducting knowledge sharing to help formulate better business planning and execution; and (5) organizing workshops on gender mainstreaming in planning and service delivery.

Through contribution agreements, the CFLI provides financial assistance to cover all or part of the costs of relatively modest projects conceived, designed and implemented mainly by local authorities, institutions or organizations. The program aims to assist in the advocacy of Canada’s values and interests, and to strengthen Canada’s bilateral relations with foreign countries and their civil societies.

In particular, the full potential for safe and efficient utilization of gene editing and live cell therapies requires an ability for controlled design of these modalities with simulations that allow testing and optimization under different conditions in both production and utilization. The project will combine machine learning and mechanistic modeling for the development of simulation of biological systems and link these simulations with learning algorithms for testing and optimizing different designs. The focus of this 2 year project, will be on the development of methods for the simulation and design of desired characteristics of exosomes, as carriers of gene therapies, and development of methodologies for building simulations for HEK293, as major cells for bioreactor production and iPSC cells as major cells in stem and cell therapy development.
This project will focus on a probabilistic framework for merging data-driven methods with theory-based models. The project will also evaluate the applicability of state-of-the-art automatic metabolic quantification methods from the literature to NMR data currently being collected by the NRC.

Financial support is provided based on RCIScience's mission in providing a platform for public engagement with leading scientists, to foster critical thinking, expand science dialogue and promote informed decision making.

This pay-for-performance model will be tested with the YMCAs of Quebec’s Alternative Suspension (AS) program, which has demonstrated positive results for at-risk youth in past program evaluations.
