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.

Agreement:

Development of an application for tissue microchip measurement.

Agreement Number:

1017172

Duration: from Apr 15, 2024 to Mar 31, 2025
Description:

The main human-derived tumor models (cell lines, xenografts and organoids) do not preserve the immune cells of the tumor from which they are derived. This limits the ability to effectively predict the effect of cancer immunotherapies in humans, and the ability to de-risk clinical validation. This project aims to characterize the immune microenvironment of human tumor explants and demonstrate its ability to measure an immune and cytotoxic response to a treatment applied ex vivo.
