Description:

BrainsCAN is dedicated to supporting novel, collaborative, and interdisciplinary research in cognitive neuroscience at all career levels, including postdoctoral fellows (PDF). The BrainsCAN PDF Collaborative Research Grant aims to promote postdoctoral networking, independence, and productivity, while increasing collaboration and research innovation across labs and/or faculties.

Proposed projects must clearly contribute to the strategic priorities of BrainsCAN (refer to BrainsCAN alignment / steering document). All project types are acceptable from discovery based science to end-user translational research. The proposed research should be interdisciplinary and leverage more than one BrainsCAN Core.

Application Details:

The investigator team must have at least two PDFs (from different labs) affiliated with any faculty or department engaging in cognitive neuroscience research. Although the grant is intended to allow an independent research opportunity, the research team must contain a faculty supervisor, specifically the researcher who will hold the ethics and/or biosafety certifications related to the proposed research. Additional collaborators and/or consultants can be included as needed.

All application forms are available on the program website. The application must be completed and signed by the lead PDF investigators.

INDIRECT COSTS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE
