Funding, News and Announcements

As Researchers applying for the NSERC Research Tools and Instruments (RTI) program may already know, NSERC has streamlined and simplified the online application form this year. Importantly, the application no longer requires details of the relationship to other grants, past training of Highly Qualified Personnel (HQP), most significant research contributions, and additional contributions. Applicants are reminded to use the Budget Justification pages to describe only the relevant grants related to the equipment request. Relationship to Other Support should also be included in this Budget Justification section.
