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.

OpenMAP: A software for self-driving laboratories
951756
The discovery of advanced materials is crucial for developments and improvements in various aspects of our modern society, from energy production and storage to public health. However, the slow and costly development process needed to discover new materials hinders our ability to achieve a low-carbon economy. Autonomous laboratories integrate automated experimentation, artificial intelligence (AI), and high-performance computing (HPC) into a single platform to substantially accelerate scientific discovery. However, their deployment is currently limited by the lack of a robust software connection between automated platforms and experiment planning methods. This link is essential for the successful implementation of a fully operational autonomous laboratory that does not require human supervision. The project will set out to develop a versatile control software representing a first step toward leveraging the potential of autonomous laboratories. This project will substantially expand the capabilities of the earlier generation of control software developed by allowing it to interface with HPC for quantum chemical calculations, assess the robustness of the solutions found, and employ generative models to propose new candidate materials.
