When: Tuesday, Aug. 17, 2010 – 11 a.m.
Background
The Early Researcher Award (ERA) program helps promising, recently-appointed Ontario researchers build their research teams of undergraduates, graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, research assistants, associates, and technicians. The goal of the program is to improve Ontario’s ability to attract and retain the best and the brightest research talent.
The Ontario Research Fund – Research Infrastructure Program ensures that Ontario’s publicly-funded research institutions and their researchers continue to have competitive, state-of-the-art infrastructure to engage in world-leading research and technology development, and are able to leverage awards from the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI.)
