Description: |
The objective of the Exploration stream of the NFRF program is to support high risk, high reward and interdisciplinary research that is not easily supported through funding opportunities currently offered by the three agencies. It seeks to inspire projects that bring disciplines together beyond traditional disciplinary or common interdisciplinary approaches by research teams with the capacity to explore something new, which might fail but has the potential for significant impact. Exploration grants aim to have a variety of types of impacts, some of which might be social, economic, scientific, artistic or cultural. This is not an exhaustive list; other types of impacts are also recognized. To encourage projects that push the boundaries in terms of interdisciplinarity, proposals must be submitted by research teams composed of at least two individuals. In addition to the nominated principal investigator (NPI), the team must include either a co-principal investigator or a co-applicant.
**Please consult the sponsors guidelines and the Western Research Officer for full submission requirements** |

Application Details: |
To ensure that Exploration grants support high risk, high reward projects across the broadest spectrum of disciplines, individuals may participate in only one Exploration stream application or grant at one time. Individuals can participate in only one application as either an NPI, a co-principal investigator or a co-applicant. Individuals cannot participate in any of these roles if they are a grantee or co-grantee on an active Exploration grant. These restrictions do not apply to collaborators. Selected teams will be invited to complete and submit an application by December 10, 2019. Applications are first submitted to the research administrator (research grants office [RGO] or equivalent) of the NPI?s primary affiliation, which must submit it through the online portal prior to the relevant deadline. Research administrators are free to set their own internal deadlines.25% INDIRECT COSTS MAY BE INCLUDED AS A LINE IN BUDGET |
|
NOTE: All Letters of Intent and Full Applications must be processed through Research Development & Services for institutional approval. Requests for Institutional approvals should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. A ROLA Proposal (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean electronic approvals) is required for each submission. |
