Genome Canada · Federal
In plain language
Commercialization-focused genomics grant: $300K–$2M from Genome Canada (1/3 of a $900K–$6M total project envelope). Academic–industry pair required, with the company contributing matching cash plus in-kind. 2026 intake: LOI April 22, full proposal by June 18, projects start Jan 2027. Strong fit for NL ocean genomics, aquaculture genetics, and health-diagnostics plays with a Canadian industry partner. Not a grant you pursue cold — you need the receptor company in hand.
