Grants and Contributions

The Vanier CGS program aims to attract and retain world-class doctoral students and establish Canada as a global centre of excellence in research and higher learning by supporting students who demonstrate a high standard of scholarly achievement in graduate studies in the social sciences and humanities, natural sciences and engineering, and health; as well as leadership skills.

The Canada Graduate Scholarships-Doctoral (CGS D) Program provides financial support to outstanding eligible students pursuing doctoral studies in a Canadian university. These prestigious scholarships aim to develop research skills and assist in the training of highly qualified personnel by supporting students who demonstrate a high standard of scholarly achievement in undergraduate and graduate studies.

The objective of the CIHR Strategic Master’s Award program is to help develop research skills and assist in the training of highly qualified personnel (HQP) by supporting students who demonstrate potential in undergraduate and early graduate studies whose applications are relevant to any of the research areas

• The Institute of Genetics (CIHR-IG) will provide funding for applications that can improve the capacity in the field of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology and Health Data Science in genetics and genomics
• This PA will support awards in the fields of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology and Health Data Science in genetics and genomics.

The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:
• Support the creation and/or further development of an inclusive, formal network to address selected priority issues related to ME;
• Encourage national (and if feasible, international) collaboration, methods development, and resource sharing (people and platforms) among multidisciplinary experts;
• Engage researchers and other Network members who have historically faced barriers in the research ecosystem, including but not limited to those marginalized by gender, Indigenous Peoples, racialized minorities, persons with disabilities, and members of LGBTQ2S+ communities;
• Develop and strengthen research capacity by connecting and engaging current researchers and training the next generation of researchers;
• Facilitate the mobilization and uptake of existing knowledge and the new knowledge generated by research evidence; and
• Ensure meaningful patient engagement with a goal of influencing impact beyond the time of this Network.

Supported by the Canada Brain Research Fund, the purpose of the Future Leaders in Canadian Brain Research program is to accelerate novel and transformative research that will fundamentally change our understanding of nervous system function and dysfunction and their impact on health. The ultimate goal is to reduce the social and economic burden of neurological and mental health illnesses through prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment. Newly trained researchers in their first independent academic position are in a strong position to formulate innovative and impactful research projects. However, at the early stages of an investigator’s career, they often lack the preliminary data and resources that are required to obtain their first large operating grant. As such, promising early-career researchers are often at a disadvantage when applying to “open” funding programs, where more established researchers tend to dominate. The Future Leaders in Canadian Brain Research program has the potential to be transformative at a time when it is well recognized that there is a significant funding gap to support and retain our brightest earlycareer researchers, who are well positioned to make major contributions to Canadian brain research. By providing early-career researchers with funding at a critical point in their careers, we can build Canada's pipeline of future leaders and a foundation of research excellence and innovation.
