Description: |
The purpose of this RFA is to solicit applications for science and technology (S&T) Platform operations support for ongoing Genome Canada Competition III projects and pending projects from the Applied Genomics Research in Bioproducts or Crops (ABC) Competition. There are at present six Genome Canada-funded S&T Platforms. This competition is open to all currently funded Genome Canada Platforms, as well as, any potential new Platforms that can meet the rigorous requirements of this competition. The LOI will be used to evaluate S&T ICs for eligibility. A Letter of Intent (LOI) will be used to evaluate the potential S&T ICs for eligibility. Each LOI
must be submitted on the form, which will be made available in early June 2010 at
http://www.genomecanada.ca/en/portfolio/research/competition.aspx. Applicants must submit
an LOI by August 20, 2010 to a Genome Centre. |

|
Application Details: |
The primary criterion, apart from excellence, for any Platform to receive funding from Genome Canada is that the Platform receives substantial demand from Genome Canada-funded large scale projects, which are independent of the Platform and its Director, i.e., service provided by a Platform to a project led by the Platform Director is not considered an independent relationship. Genome Canada-funded Platforms are also expected to provide access to non-Genome Canada-funded researchers. Each LOI must be submitted on the form available on the Sponsor's website.
Only successful LOIs will be invited to submit a full proposal.
Please contact RD&S for further information.INDIRECT COSTS ARE NOT SUPPORTED BY THIS PROGRAM |

NOTE: Letters of Intent and Full Applications are to be processed through Research Development Services for institutional signatures, and are to be accompanied by a completed RDAF form (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean signatures). Requests for Institutional signatures should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. |
