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.

Integrating AI, Fluidics, and Bioengineering for a Self-Driving Peptide Therapeutics Discovery Lab
1025435
Peptides are an increasingly effective and important drug modality that can serve to combine the advantages of small molecule drugs and large proteins. Yet, their discovery faces limitations in terms of cost and expertise, reducing access to drug discovery processes. Embracing in silico methods holds promise for revolutionizing biologic therapeutics discovery. However, high-quality training sets are rare, and training data must be generated specifically for each new drug target interaction. The goal of this project is to create a self-driving lab (SDL)-based discovery platform for peptides by combining droplet microfluidics, cell-free protein expression, and machine learning (ML)-guided design. This project will use split optical proteins, which are composed of two parts, a peptide and larger protein fragment, as well as insulin, as model peptides and targets for high-throughput screening. This platform will shift peptide discovery from manual to automated, accelerating the development of next-gen tools and drugs with broad applications in research and medicine.
