Evaluate Novel and Emerging PTSD Treatments Phase II

How to Apply: 

The overarching goal is to test the feasibility of conducting a randomized controlled trial of the novel treatment compared to treatment as usual in a sample of serving CAF members or Veterans with PTSD. This will include:

  1. Identifying optimal inclusion and exclusion criteria.
  2. Identify effective recruitment strategies.
  3. Measure potential adverse outcomes including premature treatment discontinuation.
  4. Collect outcomes data to enable sample size calculations for definitive study.

Since it is only through hearing from Indigenous peoples and their experiences with the military health care system that the CAF can make improvements, this funding call seeks submissions that use qualitiative methods (i.e., interviews, qualitative surveys, case studies, etc.).

Hannah Studentships

How to Apply: 

If you’re an undergraduate or MA student looking for an opportunity to learn techniques of historical research, consider a Hannah Studentship. It’s designed to encourage your continuing and serious study of medical history.

This grant may be for you if you research the impact of technology on the practice of medicine and the delivery of healthcare services. Your project may form part of an honours or MA thesis, a major research paper, or an elective project. You may receive course credit for the work, but you must be able to complete the work within three months.

Partnership Engage Grants

How to Apply: 

These grants provide short-term and timely support for partnered research activities that will inform decision-making at a single partner organization from the public, private or not-for-profit sector. The small-scale, stakeholder-driven partnerships supported through Partnership Engage Grants are meant to respond to immediate needs and time constraints facing organizations in non-academic sectors. In addressing an organization-specific need, challenge and/or opportunity, these partnerships let non-academic organizations and postsecondary researchers access each other’s unique knowledge, expertise and capabilities on topics of mutual interest.

Kenora and Rainy River Community Investment Program

How to Apply: 
Greo has opened a call for applications to the Kenora and Rainy River Community Investment Program, which provides funding for organizations and researchers working to prevent and reduce gambling-related harms in the Kenora and Rainy River region. There are two funding streams:
 
  1. Community Stream: Up to $100,000 per project for community-led initiatives focused on prevention, education, treatment, and support.
  2. Research Stream: Up to $200,000 per project for locally driven research that builds knowledge and strengthens responses to gambling-related harms in the region.
 
For anyone interested in applying, the first step is to submit a short Expression of Interest (EOI) by October 2, 2026. You do not need to have a fully developed project or proposal at this stage. The EOI simply lets us know that you may be interested in applying and helps us prepare an appropriate review committee in advance of the full application deadline on January 29, 2027.

Undergraduate Research Grants

How to Apply: 

The goals of the American Chemical Society Petroleum Research Fund are:

  • To support fundamental research in the petroleum field, and
  • To develop the next generation of engineers and scientists through support of advanced scientific education.

The Undergraduate Research (UR) grants program supports the research programs of established scientists and engineers at non-doctoral departments and provides financial support for students at those institutions to become involved in advanced research activities, in preparation for continued study in graduate school or employment.

New Directions Grants

How to Apply: 

The New Directions (ND) grants program provides funds to scientists and engineers with limited—or even no—preliminary results for a research project they wish to pursue, and who intend to use the PRF-driven preliminary results to seek continuation funding from other agencies. ND grants are to be used to illustrate proof of concept/feasibility. Accordingly, they are to be viewed as seed money for new research ventures.

A "new research direction" is something different from previous research performed by the lead principal investigator (lead PI). But, it may involve a field of science or engineering in which others are already working. Therefore, the proposed research should not be in the same direction as—or overlap with—current projects in the lead PI’s research group. Excluded from consideration will be

  • Lead PIs who have had previous support or current funding for the project, and
  • Proposals presenting ideas that are a logical extension of ongoing research from the lead PI’s laboratory.

Preliminary results and/or communications are not required.
