BWF's Career Awards at the Scientific Interface (CASI) provide $560,000 over five years to bridge advanced postdoctoral training and the first three years of faculty service. These awards are open to U.S. and Canadian citizens, permanent residents, and temporary residents.

The Burroughs Wellcome Fund launched the Career Awards at the Scientific Interface in 1999 to foster the early career development of researchers who are transitioning from training environments in the physical, mathematical, computational sciences and/or engineering into postdoctoral work in the biological sciences, and who are dedicated to pursuing a career in academic research.

Delivered in collaboration with Canada’s Department of National Defence, this competitive funding opportunity supports industrial innovation partnerships that advance Canadian sovereign capabilities in areas identified in Canada’s Defence Industrial Strategy.

The Mitacs Accelerate Defence and Security call advances Canada’s sovereign defence capabilities by pairing Canadian researchers and innovators with partner organizations on applied, mission-relevant R&D.

SSHRC, in partnership with NordForsk, is pleased to launch a Knowledge Synthesis Grants (KSG) competition to mobilize, examine and synthesize social sciences and humanities research on The Changing Nature of Security and Conflict. The resulting syntheses will help identify roles the academic, public, private and not-for-profit sectors could play in promoting more inclusive and equitable societies; and could inform development of effective tools and technologies, robust policies, and sustainable practices needed to support the path toward a diverse and inclusive future for all. SSHRC encourages Indigenous-led and Inuit Nunangat–based research approaches that reflect community priorities, land-based knowledge, and Northern sovereignty. Proposals co-developed with Indigenous Peoples and Northern communities are strongly welcomed.

Insight Grants support research proposed by scholars and judged worthy of funding by their peers and/or other experts. Insight Grant research initiatives can be undertaken by an individual researcher or a team of researchers working in collaboration.

Applicants choose from one of two streams, depending on the amount of funding required. Both streams will be adjudicated by the same committees, and will receive the same rigorous level of merit review. The deadlines and application process are identical for both; however, the targeted success rate for Stream A is higher than for Stream B.

The Mitacs Accelerate Global Excellence Award is an exciting funding opportunity targeting individuals who will relocate to Canada for a collaborative, industrial-based research project at an eligible Canadian academic institution and with a Mitacs-eligible partner (private company, not-for-profit organization, municipality, or hospital).

Jointly funded by Mitacs and industry partners, this award ensures strong collaboration and impact and will provide an enhanced funding package to support the costs of research as well as relocation.

Each two-year project will be valued at $170,000, broken down as follows:

• $85,000 annual award, with $42,500 + tax per year provided by the partner organization (full contribution for the first year will be invoiced upon project approval)
• Minimum of $70,000 allocated to stipend and up to $15,000 available for research and relocation expenses

Projects are collaborations between a postdoctoral fellow, a partner organization, and an academic supervisor.

Specific Priorities grants support research to address operational need and help answer key questions in occupational health and safety and workers' compensation. The purpose of this RFP is to solicit research proposals relating to the impact of Class A and Class B fuel types during live fire training on firefighter exposures to carcinogens.

This funding opportunity seeks submissions that will generate practical evidence for CFHS on:

• Barriers and enablers to early help-seeking and early intervention uptake for CAF-related mental health needs (member and clinician perspectives).
• Barriers and enablers to implement and sustain MBC in routine care (workflow, burden, training, trust, and perceived value).
• Safety, ethical, and privacy considerations for digital and agentic AI interventions used to support early intervention and MBC (including risk mitigation approaches).
• Implementation guidance and recommendations to inform future policy, practice, and R&D scoping.

Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC), in partnership with Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC), invites proposals under the Joint Federal Research Funding Program (JFRFP) to advance scientific understanding and training effectiveness of the Anti‑G Straining Maneuver (AGSM) used by Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) pilots. This funding opportunity seeks integrative, multidisciplinary research to inform improved AGSM training approaches, with the goals of enhancing G‑force (Gz) tolerance, reducing the risk of G‑induced loss of consciousness (GLOC), and supporting operational performance in next‑generation high‑performance aircraft.

The specific objective of this funding opportunity is to:

• foster new collaborations between researchers and clinicians and to support original, high-quality projects with strong translational potential. Funded projects are expected to significantly advance the understanding and exploitation of cancer metabolism in clinically relevant settings.
