the tanaka fund was established in 1974 as the result of an exchange of gifts between the governments of canada and japan. canada offered $1,000,000 to japan to promote canadian studies in japanese universities, while japan provided 300 million yen for the enhancement of japanese studies in canadian universities. the funds were used to establish the “japan foundation trust fund for the promotion of japanese studies in canadian universities”.

annual value: a total of $50,000 is available for this year’s awards.

value of grants: grants up to a maximum of $10,000 are available

who is eligible: masters or doctoral level 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛

in an effort to continue to enhance biostatistical research capacity and help meet the high demand for oncology biostatistical support, the oicr bti is piloting the junior biostatistician award aimed at placing a recent biostatistician graduate at an ontario host institution, guided by a principal applicant and biostatistics mentor.

with support from the oicr bti junior biostatistician award, applicant team members will be expected to identify a recently trained biostatistician with the required technical knowledge and skillset required to collaborate with existing host institution researchers to support enhanced high impact research. through this new placement, the junior biostatistician will engage in interdisciplinary, collaborative cancer research.

ericsson is interested in working with ontario based college/ university teams to conceptualize, investigate, prototype and verify advanced planning solutions for high performance indoor virtual locationing.

quantum computation will fundamentally change the way information is transmitted and processed in the next decade. this will transformation is expected to impact the telecommunication industry in the future. an area of strategic importance for the telecom sector is how to maintain secure communication when a quantum computer has the potential to break many cryptography systems. the telecommunications sector could use of quantum computers for many applications in the future including quantum cryptography, network optimization, quantum networking in terrestrial fiber networks, and ai applications. while there are many approaches to implement qubits, the basic building blocks of quantum computers, ciena is interested in investigating the viability of using si technology, which has been the preferred hardware platform for telecommunication systems. this academic research challenge is expected to demonstrate, experimentally, the potential for si based qubit with the required high-speed circuitry and the possibility for operating above 4k and later at even higher temperatures. this activity will allow ciena to closely follow the progress of this new information transmission and processing method and to have an informed opinion about the availability and characteristics of quantum information processing systems.

5g technology has the potential to solve key challenges faced by transit operators in helping them to run their systems safely and efficiently. while many recognize this as an opportunity there is limited data on the capabilities and performance of 5g for this application. thales canada is interested in working with an ontario based academic institution to develop a series of models and simulations to better understand the operation of 5g for mass transit systems.

a limited number of travel awards to phd, md, or md/phd 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 , and post-doctoral/medical/clinical fellows are available. the purpose of this program is to defray the travel costs associated with making a scientific presentation as a first author or presenter at a conference, symposium or other appropriate professional meeting.

postdoctoral enrichment program (pdep) provides a total of $60,000 over three years to support the career development activities for underrepresented minority postdoctoral fellows in a degree-granting institution in the united states or canada whose training and professional development are guided by mentors committed to helping them advance to stellar careers in biomedical or medical research.
