Request for Applications for Network-Wide Research Projects and Cores
NeuroDevNet, a national Network of Centres of Excellence, is applying for a second round of funding from the Networks of Centres of Excellence (NCE) Canada program. They are inviting Letters of Intent (LOI) for Research Project and Core proposals, anticipating renewal for a second five-year term, extending from 2015-2019.
Approximately $3.5 million per year will be available for research and service programs fundamental to the network. As part of the Network strategic plan, Neurodevnet is seeking to expand research activities in certain priority areas including a
- focus on therapeutic interventions
- common co-morbidities across neuro-developmental disorders
- novel data analytics that facilitate cross-project integration
Research project submissions should have translational capacity toward commercialization or social innovation, and present leveraged funding opportunities.
New groups or individuals who have not previously received NeuroDevNet funding are particularly encouraged to apply, as are existing research teams currently supported in ASD, CP and FASD projects.
