Genome Canada has the intention of launching a funding competition for large scale applied research in agriculture and agri-food.
Genome Canada LSARP competition will support projects focused on using genomic approaches to address challenges and opportunities of importance to Canada鈥檚 agriculture and agri-food. It will target applied research projects with a total budget between $2M and $10M, over a period of 4 years.听Projects must have concrete deliverables at the end of the funding period as well as concrete and measurable short-term socio-economic benefits (3 to 5 years after the end of the project) with a defined and realistic knowledge transfer plan.
A representative of Genome Quebec will present the program, its intended scope and its process.
There will be a Question and Answer period.
