Description:

Genome Canada, in partnership with the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), is seeking proposals for research projects to address any aspect of bioinformatics and computational biology (B/CB) as it relates to genomics.

Applications to the large-scale applied project category will involve multi-disciplinary, collaborative teams that plan to tackle large-scale complex B/CB problems with direct applicability to genomics. At least 50% of the requested funding for eligible costs for each project must be obtained through co-funding from other sources.

Application Details: The major objectives of this RFA are to: 1.support the development of next generation Bioinformatics and Computational Biology tools and methodologies that will be required by the research community to deal with the influx of large amounts of data produced by modern genomics technologies; and, 2.provide broad access of these new Bioinformatics and Computational Biology tools to the research community.The small-scale innovative project category provides an opportunity for individuals or small groups to propose innovative and disruptive ideas with the potential for significant impact. Co-funding is NOT required for SIPs
NOTE: All Letters of Intent and Full Applications must be processed through Research Development & Services for institutional approval. Requests for Institutional approvals should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. A ROLA Proposal (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean electronic approvals) is required for each submission.
