Sound research data management (RDM) practices are required by funding agencies worldwide. In Canada, following the launch in 2021, researchers are increasingly being asked to develop data management plans as part of grant applications and to deposit data that directly supports research conclusions into a repository.

However, the Tri-Agency policy acknowledges that research with and by Indigenous communities must be “managed in accordance with data management principles developed and approved by these communities”, which could result in exceptions to these requirements. These principles are similarly asserted in Extending the Rafters , the final report of the Queen’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission Task Force (2016). To reduce harm in this research context and ensure culturally appropriate and mutually beneficial research, researchers and research staff need to understand the use of wise RDM practices, in concept and implementation.

Presented by R4R@Q in partnership with First Nations Information Governance Centre, this panel session will explore key RDM considerations for research by and with Indigenous communities.

The Ontario Centre of Innovation Collaborate 2 Commercialize (OCI C2C) program supports the collaboration between Academia and Industry to solve an industry-based problem and drive the commercialization of Intellectual Property (IP). Participating institutions will leverage the unique skills and specialized infrastructure that is instrumental to streamline internal innovations and commercialization needs. OCI matches industry contributions 1:1 from a minimum contribution of $20,000 to a maximum of $150,000 for projects with a budget of $40,000 to $300,000.

Join this session presented by Cher Powers, Business Development and Commercialization Manager, OCI to learn more about the program.

Are you currently preparing an NSERC Discovery Grant application? Do you have any questions about the application process? Would you prefer to ask an NSERC representative about them face-to-face, rather than trying to articulate them in an email?

As part of the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) - Discovery Grants (DG) Summer Series, the Vice-Principal Research portfolio invites the Queen's research community on Thursday, August 8, 3 - 4 pm, to an in-person Q&A Session with Félix Moore, an NSERC Program Officer for the Discovery Grant program.

The goal of the New Frontiers in Research Fund Exploration Stream is to inspire high-risk, high-reward and interdisciplinary research.

Exploration grants support research that pushes boundaries into exciting new areas. Researchers are encouraged to think “outside of the box,” undertake research that would defy current paradigms, and bring disciplines together in unexpected ways and from bold, innovative perspectives. With the Exploration stream, there is recognition that innovation often carries risk; proposals for high-risk research projects that have the potential to deliver game-changing impacts are strongly encouraged.

Exploration stream grants support projects that:

• bring disciplines together beyond traditional disciplinary or common interdisciplinary approaches;
• propose to explore something new, which might fail; and
• have the potential for significant impact.

Please join us for a panel discussion with the NFRF-E awardees who will share successful practices drawing from their experiences with this competition.
