Description: |
The program, established in 2005, is jointly managed and funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC). Its aim is to promote the development of Canadian-Chinese scientific co-operation between universities, hospitals, research institutes or affiliated research organizations in Canada and China through the support of collaborative research grants. The 2010 request for applications is a collaboration between NSFC and 8 CIHR Institutes. Eight priority areas of interest to both countries have been identified for this RFA and are listed in the program guidelines. Applications must respond to one or more of these topics. |

Application Details: |
The grants, the costs of which will be shared equally by CIHR and NSFC, may be used to cover the following costs incurred in the international portion of projects:
The grant can make a contribution towards expenditures directly related to the research project and international travel for exchange visits (less than 6 months) that are an essential part of the collaborative project, including coverage for domestic travel and subsistence that are directly related to international travel. The total grant per project is up to CAN $50,000 per year for up to three years. Please note the registration deadline of 15 February 2010. Only the Canadian Nominated Principal Applicant must register by the registration deadline date.
This funding opportunity requires the use of CIHR Web Forms to apply for funding. Canadian and Chinese teams who wish to conduct a collaborative project under this program must submit the same applications in English to their respective funding agencies. Chinese applicants are also required to submit an NSFC application form in Chinese. The English version of the application will always take precedence.
Applications submitted by only one side will not be accepted. Canadian / Chinese team leaders will, therefore, ensure that their counterpart submits a matching application by the required deadline. A letter from the collaborating Project applicant will be included with the application documentation.INDIRECT COSTS ARE NOT SUPPORTED BY THIS PROGRAM. |

NOTE: Letters of Intent and Full Applications are to be processed through Research Development Services for institutional signatures, and are to be accompanied by a completed RDAF form (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean signatures). Requests for Institutional signatures should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. |
