    MAJOR RESOURCES SUPPORT (MRS) PROGRAM: LETTER OF INTENT

    The Major Resources Support (MRS) program aims to facilitate the effective access of Canadian researchers to major regional, national, or international (based in Canada) experimental or thematic research resources by financially assisting these resources to remain in a state of readiness for researchers to use. It also seeks to facilitate access by Canadian researchers to major international resources located outside Canada, excluding any direct financial support towards the operating and maintenance costs of such resources. Starting from fiscal year 2009-2010, the Major Resources Support program will only provide support to unique national or international (located in Canada) research resources. Ongoing grants to any type of resource will not be affected by the program’s new focus. At the time of renewal the resources will need to demonstrate that they fully satisfy the revised program’s objective and selection criteria. Submission of full applications is by invitation only.

    NSERC LOI (FORM 181) DEADLINES:  May 1, 2009 (Friday); August 1, 2009 (deadline for Subatomic Physics Resources LOIs ONLY)
    INTERNAL DEADLINE:  Not applicable. Applicants send their LOIs directly to NSERC.

    SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS:

    1. Send your Form 181 to NSERC by mail.
    2. Submit five (5) copies, including the original. Form 181 must be received at NSERC no later than the deadline date. Do not send any other correspondence in this mailing. NSERC does not accept packages sent COD.

    COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH AND TRAINING EXPERIENCE (CREATE) PROGRAM: LETTER OF INTENT

    The CREATE Program supports the training of teams of outstanding students and postdoctoral fellows from Canada and abroad through the development of innovative training programs that encourage collaborative and integrative approaches, and address significant scientific challenges associated to Canada's research priorities, and facilitate the transition of new researchers from trainees to productive employees in the Canadian workforce.

    NSERC LOI (FORM 187) DEADLINE:  May 15, 2009 (Friday)
    INTERNAL DEADLINE:  May 1, 2009 (Friday)

    NEW THIS YEAR – PROGRAM CHANGES & SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS:

    1. Program Changes
    2. There will now be a Letter of Intent (LOI) stage and selection process instead of the Notification of Intent to Apply which was only used for planning purposes.
    3. Instead of a quota of four applications maximum from each eligible Canadian university, as was allowed in the 2009 competition, there will be a distinction based on the size of the university. This is in response to concerns from the university community. Large universities will have a quota of six LOIs. Mid-size universities will continue to have a quota of four LOIs. Smaller universities will have a quota of two LOIs.
    4. External peer review will be conducted by NSERC at the LOI stage.
    5. Only one (1) institutional letter of support from the applicant’s University Vice President, Research, is required by NSERC.
    6. Internal Application/Selection Procedures:
    7. The internal selection process of the 6 LOIs from the University is being reviewed and will be confirmed shortly. It is expected that selection will be completed by May 8th.
    8. To be considered, applicants should forward their Form 187 (LOI), including the principal applicant’s Form 100, to Research Services by Friday, May 1st.
    9. The completed LOI (which consists of Form 187, Form 100 of the principal applicant and institutional letter of support) can be submitted electronically through the NSERC Online System or by paper. If by paper, the complete package must be mailed to:

Research submissions, including studies using quantitative, qualitative, and case study designs and methodologies are welcome.

    This year's Harvey Stancer Research Day will be held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. Poster presenters are expected to display their poster prior to the keynote session and are expected to attend the keynote session and be available during the poster session to answer questions from attendees. Speakers are expected to attend the keynote session and sessions when they are not presenting.

    Attendees not presenting are required to register starting from March 9,

    THE PSYCHOTHERAPY AWARD FOR ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE
     

     
    As we come to the end of the academic year, it is once again time to pause and reflect on our work in considering nominating one of our colleagues for the Psychotherapy Award for Academic Excellence. This award, established in 2001, is intended to recognize outstanding contribution by an individual to the Psychotherapy Program.  The scope of this contribution can be reflected in any of the activities of the Psychotherapy Program, including teaching and education, psychotherapy research, program development, clinical scholarship or creative professional development.  Recognition should be provided to individuals across the entire collective of our work, and not be limited to contributions that represent a “lifetime achievement”. In this way, excellence, passion and commitment, in whatever guises, to the academic endeavour of psychotherapy will be more apparent.

    Please see the attached notice for the guidelines around the process of nomination. Thank you for your attention to this.
