We are pleased to announce the 2021/22 Grants for Catalyzing Research Clusters (GCRC) Competition.
Applications are being invited from both emerging and established clusters of research excellence in all disciplines on the Vancouver campus. Previously funded clusters, as well as new clusters, are eligible to apply to this competition. A notice of intent to apply must be submitted by November 2, 2020.
Changes have been made to this year’s competition to allow for enhanced trainee stipends. Researchers can learn more at information sessions on October 15 and October 26.
Full details about the competition, information sessions, and instructions for applying can be found at www.research.ubc.ca/GCRC.
Grants for Catalyzing Research Clusters are enabled by the UBC Vancouver Academic Excellence Funds in support of Strategy 6 (Collaborative Clusters) in UBC’s Strategic Plan. You can learn more about UBC’s Strategic Plan at https://strategicplan.ubc.ca/.
