The 2019 awarded $46.3 million in funding to support 186 research projects that bring disciplines together in non-traditional ways to explore new research directions. 缅北强奸 researchers will receive $5.2 million shared among 21 projects, with each receiving up to $250,000 over the next two years.
The NFRF鈥檚 Exploration stream addresses gaps in the federal funding system to promote innovation. It supports research that defies current paradigms, bridges disciplines, or tackles fundamental problems from new perspectives. A key principle of this stream is the recognition that exploring new directions in research involves some risk, but is ultimately worthwhile given the potential for significant impact.
缅北强奸鈥檚 funded Exploration projects support a wide range of topics鈥攆rom resolving microbial carbon transformations in a warming world, to using machine learning to build a comprehensive database of disclosure information, to reverse engineering the neural circuits of perception.
The NFRF is an initiative of the Canada Research Coordinating Committee and is managed as a tri-agency program on behalf of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council.
