Alliance Quantum grants delivered through this call for proposals will support projects that advance the development and adoption of quantum technologies in Canada through partnerships between university researchers and organizations from the private, public or not-for-profit sectors. These projects will generate new knowledge and further the translation of research results into tangible benefits for Canada.

The Team Grant: Funding Research for Evidence in School Food and Health (FRESH) aims to generate actionable, high-quality evidence to inform and improve school food policy, programming and practice across Canada. This funding opportunity supports intersectoral, interdisciplinary research led by a tripartite leadership team composed of researchers, decision-makers, and knowledge users.

Eligible research must focus on School food programs (SFPs) in all their diversity within the Canadian context, so long as the programs are delivered to children and youth during the school year and in schools or school-like settings (e.g., elementary schools, secondary schools, community centres, etc.). A broad range of research methods and approaches are welcome, including but not limited to: cross-jurisdictional or comparative studies; implementation science; mixed-methods; longitudinal studies; quasi-experimental designs; econometrics; policy studies; community-engaged research; systems research; and Indigenous and decolonizing methodologies. Research proposals must explicitly focus on the link between SFPs and population health and health equity.

In line with the NSF-Policy, successful FRESH Teams must take an equity focus with respect to research outcomes (SFPs' potential role in reducing health inequities); research priorities (assessing the extent to, and ways in which, equity is embedded in the design and delivery of school food policies and programming); and research processes (research methods and team composition, if applicable).

 
Normally, one (1) prize is awarded annually in each of five (5) disciplines. The Killam Prize is valued at $100,000 CAD.  They are awarded annually, on a competitive basis, for research done in any of the following disciplines:

• Engineering
• Health sciences
• Humanities
• Natural sciences
• Social sciences

The objective of Idea to Innovation (I2I) grants is to accelerate the pre-competitive development of promising technology originating from the university and college sector, and to promote its transfer to a new or established Canadian company. I2I grants provide funding to college and university faculty members to support research and development projects with recognized technology transfer potential. This is achieved through defined phases by providing crucial assistance in the early stages of technology validation and market connection.
