Call for Collaborative Research Projects on the Brain

This CQDM and Brain Canada initiative specifically focuses on brain research relevant to biopharmaceutical applications. The intent of the initiative is to:

• Increase research collaborations and partnerships between universities and companies in the life sciences industry in Quebec and other Canadian provinces and territories to improve the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of brain disorders.
• Foster technological maturation and industrial value creation leading to economic benefits for the project's stakeholders, Quebec and the rest of Canada.
• Promote the knowledge, capabilities and new technologies developed in public institutions, and facilitate uptake by industry.

Up to $1.6M available to support collaborative brain research projects.

Please note: The principal investigator must be based at a research institution in Quebec (university and affiliated hospital, research institute, public research center).
