On Thursday, June 19, 2014, Rieseberg, Loren > wrote: Hi all, Genome Canada has finally announced their food genomics competition. As we discussed earlier, I was planning to submit an expanded version of our recent NSF proposal (led by John and Lisa) on the Evolutionary Genomics of Abiotic Stress Resistance in Sunflower. I was considering the following expansions: (1) add Helianthus debilis to the population genomic analyses; (2) consider doing WGS sequencing for the population genomic analyses rather than the 200K SNP array; (3) expand the transcriptomic analysis to include the four wild species; (4) include development of both the male and female MAGIC populations; and (5) conduct field-based phenotyping / performance of the two MAGIC populations at several sites around the work, potentially including Africa. In Canada, we are required to include a social science research component in our proposals. For our previous project, we worked with Emily Marden in the Faculty of Law here at UBC. She has been great to work with and has become increasingly interested in how the international treaty on plant genetic resources is affecting the use of germplasm in the world=E2=80=99s genebanks by industry. The MAGIC popul= ation offers an interesting case study since some of the germplasm comes from the Canadian gene bank and thus is covered by the treaty. Much of the rest is from the USDA collections and has no restrictions in its use. We are considering using the Canadian germplasm in just one of the two populations, so we have a treatment and control so to speak. Would the five of you would be willing to serve as co-PIs on this proposal (we will have additional collaborators of course, including the other co-PIs from the NSF proposal, as well as half a dozen industry groups)? If so, please let me know if you agree with the proposed expansions and/or or have other suggestions or comments. Also, Genome Canada requires co-funding and typically does not allow money to leave Canada (although we have been able to get exceptions here and there in the past). My plan was to use the NSF grant as co-funding, along with the in kind support from industry for phenotyping. However, it would be very helpful if INRA and the USDA would be willing to formally offer in kind support (e.g., personnel and supply costs associated with developing the MAGIC population as well as phenotyping).

The amount of funding available from Genome Canada is now up to 40% of the overall approved project budget, and GBC will contribute up to an additional 25%. The RFA and registration documents are attached and other documents can be found on Genome BC=E2=80=99s website at the foll= owing link: http://www.genomebc.ca/research-programs/opportunities/current-funding-c ompetitions/genomics-and-feeding-future/ Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in learning more about this competition. Best regards, Alison adendoff@genomebc.ca 604-637-4381 Alison Dendoff Coordinator, New Programs Genome British Columbia From: Alison Dendoff Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2014 4:42 PM To: 'lriesebe@mail.ubc.ca' Cc: David Charest; Gabe Kalmar Subject: Upcoming Genome Canada funding opportunity Dear Loren, Genome Canada will soon be seeking proposals for large-scale applied research projects, which focus on the application of genomics and related technologies (bioinformatics, epigenomics, metabolomics, metagenomics, nutrigenomics, pharmacogenomics, proteomics and transcriptomics) in the agri-food and fisheries/aquaculture sectors to address opportunities and challenges related to Canadian and global food safety, food security and sustainable production. Applicants must demonstrate how their proposal holds a high potential for attaining concrete deliverables by the end of the funding period and therefore translate into significant social and/or economic benefits to BC and Canada in as short a time-frame as possible after the close of the project. Proposals that address challenges that are relevant both in the Canadian context and also to Canada's international development priorities by providing sustainable, genomic-based solutions to problems of agriculture and fisheries/aquaculture in developing countries will also be considered. Project total budgets can range in size from $2M to $10M, and successful projects will be awarded funding for a term of up to four (4) years. At this time the amount of funding from Genome Canada is undetermined, but will minimally be one-third of the overall approved budget, with GBC funding an additional 25% of the overall approved budget. Genome Canada is continuing to work with the Centres and other funding agencies to increase its maximum contribution to 50% of the overall budget. Additionally, eligible sources of co-funding may include specific Canadian federal funding sources (e.g. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Growing Forward 2). Notable co-funding exceptions include Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC), and tri-agency programs (e.g., the Networks of Centres of Excellence, Centers of Excellence for Commercialization and Research, and the Canada Research Chairs). Foreign sources are also acceptable. Potential research applicants should contact Genome BC directly to discuss possible co-funding scenarios. Based on Genome Canada's criteria lead research applicants must be from eligible institutions: 1. Canadian post-secondary organizations and their affiliated institutions including hospitals and research institutes; 2. Canadian non-federal government departments or agencies and not-for-profit organizations (including community or charitable organizations) with an explicit research or knowledge-translation mandate. Research teams may include as co-applicants international, private sector (for-profit organizations), or federal laboratory scientists who may also provide co-funding for eligible expenses. Genome Canada funds can be awarded to researchers at Canadian post-secondary organizations including hospitals and research institutes, Canadian non-federal government departments and agencies (e.g. BC Provincial Plant and Animal Health Branch, British Columbia Centre for Disease Control) and not-for-profit organizations. Genome Canada cannot flow funds outside of Canada for research undertaken in a foreign country, in for-profit organizations or in federal laboratories (e.g. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Canadian Food Inspection Agency, Department of Fisheries and Oceans etc.) except for costs incurred based on a reasonable fee-for-service arrangement or contract. Genome BC funds can be awarded to researchers at British Columbia post-secondary organizations including hospitals and research institutes, Canadian federal government departments and agencies (e.g. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Canadian Food Inspection Agency, Department of Fisheries and Oceans etc.) and not-for-profit organizations. Genome BC cannot flow funds outside of British Columbia for research undertaken outside the province, into for-profit organizations or in to provincial laboratories (e.g. BC Provincial Plant and Animal Health Branch) except for costs incurred based on a reasonable fee-for-service arrangement or contract. End-users must be clearly integrated into the project team in the form of a project team member, collaborator, and/or member of the management team. Co-funding would clearly demonstrate end-user interest in the project=E2=80=99s potential deliverables, although= it is not a requirement for an end-user organization to contribute to the co-funding required. Social Scientists and humanists can submit Large-scale GE3LS (Genomics, Ethical, Environmental, Economic, Legal and Social) research projects for funding. All research projects must include an integrated GE3Ls research component as part of the research team. All research applicants from BC who are leading a proposal and research team are required to apply for Genome Canada funding through Genome BC. All interested researchers and their teams must contact Genome BC in advance of submitting any project proposal to discuss the objectives and deliverables of the research program. BC researchers who are co-applicants on projects led by other Genome Centres in Canada are encouraged to contact Genome BC to determined whether their project is eligible for research funding for the BC portion of the project. If you are interested in learning more about this program, or receiving the RFA when it is released, please contact David Charest, Director, Sector Development, and Sector Manager for the agri-foods and agriculture sector at dcharest@genomebc.ca. David will be away from the office until April 7; in his absence, please feel free to contact Gabe Kalmar, VP, Sector Development at gkalmar@genomebc.ca.

Hi all,

Genome Canada has finally announced their food genomics competition. &= nbsp;As we discussed earlier, I was planning to submit an expanded version = of our recent NSF proposal (led by John and Lisa) on the Evolutionary Genom= ics of Abiotic Stress Resistance in Sunflower.

In Canada, we are required to include a social science research compon= ent in our proposals.  For our previous project, we worked with Emily = Marden in the Faculty of Law here at UBC.  She has been great to work = with and has become increasingly interested in how the international treaty on plant genetic resources is affecting th= e use of germplasm in the world=E2=80=99s genebanks by industry.  The = MAGIC population offers an interesting case study since some of the germpla= sm comes from the Canadian gene bank and thus is covered by the treaty.  Much of the rest is from the USDA collecti= ons and has no restrictions in its use.  We are considering using the = Canadian germplasm in just one of the two populations, so we have a treatme= nt and control so to speak.

Would the five of you would be willing to serve as co-PIs on this prop= osal (we will have additional collaborators of course, including the other = co-PIs from the NSF proposal, as well as half a dozen industry groups)? &nb= sp;If so, please let me know if you agree with the proposed expansions and/or or have other suggestions or comments.=  Also, Genome Canada requires co-funding and typically does not allow= money to leave Canada (although we have been able to get exceptions here a= nd there in the past).  My plan was to use the NSF grant as co-funding, along with the in kind support from indus= try for phenotyping.  However, it would be very helpful if INRA and th= e USDA would be willing to formally offer in kind support (e.g., personnel = and supply costs associated with developing the MAGIC population as well as phenotyping).

Thanks, loren

Subject: Upcoming Genome Canada funding opportunit= y
 
Dear Loren,
 
Genome Canada will soon be seeking proposals for large-scale applied resear= ch projects, which focus on the application of genomics and related technol= ogies (bioinformatics, epigenomics, metabolomics, metagenomics, nutrigenomi= cs, pharmacogenomics, proteomics and transcriptomics) in the agri-food and fisheries/aquaculture sectors to= address opportunities and challenges related to Canadian and global food s= afety, food security and sustainable production.  
 
Applicants must demonstrate how their proposal holds a high potential for a= ttaining concrete deliverables by the end of the funding period and therefo= re translate into significant social and/or economic benefits to BC and Can= ada in as short a time-frame as possible after the close of the project.  Proposals  that addres= s challenges that are relevant both in the Canadian context and also to Can= ada's international development priorities by providing sustainab= le, genomic-based solutions to problems of agriculture and fisheries/aquaculture in developing countries will also be considered.=
 
Project total budgets can range in size from=  $2M to $10M, and successful projects will be awarded funding for= a term of up to four (4) years.  
 
At this time the amount of funding from Genome Canada is undetermined, but = will minimally be one-third of the overall approved budget, with GBC fundin= g an additional 25% of the overall approved budget.  Genome Canada is continuing to work with the Centres and other funding agencies to increase its maximum contri= bution to 50% of the overall budget.  
 
Additionally, eligible sources of co-funding may include specific Can= adian federal funding sources (e.g. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Depar= tment of Fisheries and Oceans, Growing Forward 2).  Notable co-fund= ing exceptions include Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research C= ouncil (NSERC), the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC)= , and tri-agency programs (e.g., the Networks of Centres of Excellence, Cen= ters of Excellence for Commercialization and Research, and the Canada Research Chairs).  = ;Foreign sources are also acceptable.  Potential research applicants s= hould contact Genome BC directly to discuss possible co-funding scenarios. =    
 
Based on Genome Canada's criteria lead research applicants must be from eli= gible institutions:
1.     &nbs= p;Canadian post-secondary organizations and their affi= liated institutions including hospitals and research institutes;
2.     &nbs= p;Canadian non-federal government departments or agenc= ies and not-for-profit organizations (including community or charitable organizations) with an explicit research or knowledge-translation mandate.=
Research teams may include as co-applicants international, private sector (= for-profit organizations), or federal laboratory scientists who may also pr= ovide co-funding for eligible expenses. 
 
Genome Canada funds can be awarded to researchers at Canadian post-se= condary organizations including hospitals and research institutes, Canadian= non-federal government departments and agencies (e.g. BC Provinc= ial Plant and Animal Health Branch, British Columbia Centre for Disease Control) and not-for-profit = organizations.  Genome Canada cannot flow funds outside of Canada for = research undertaken in a foreign country, in for-profit organizations or in= federal laboratories (e.g. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Canadian Food Inspection Agency, Department of Fishe= ries and Oceans etc.) except for costs incurred based on a reason= able fee-for-service arrangement or contract. 
 
Genome BC funds can be awarded to researchers at British Columbia post-seco= ndary organizations including hospitals and research institutes, Canadian f= ederal government departments and agencies (e.g. Agriculture and Ag= ri-Food Canada, Canadian Food Inspection Agency, Department of Fisheries and Oceans etc.) and not-for= -profit organizations.  Genome BC cannot flow funds outside of British= Columbia for research undertaken outside the province, into for-profit org= anizations or in to provincial laboratories (e.g. BC Provincial Plant and Animal Health Branch) except for costs incurred based= on a reasonable fee-for-service arrangement or contract. 
 
End-users must be clearly integrated into the project team in the form of a= project team member, collaborator, and/or member of the management team. &= nbsp;Co-funding would clearly demonstrate end-user interest in the project= =E2=80=99s potential deliverables, although it is not a requirement for an end-user organization to contribute to the co-= funding required.  
 
Social Scientists and humanists can submit Large-scale GE3LS (Genomics, Eth= ical, Environmental, Economic, Legal and Social) research projects for fund= ing.  All research projects must include an integrated GE3Ls res= earch component as part of the research team.   
 
All research applicants from BC who are leading a proposal and research = team are required to apply for Genome Canada funding through Genome BC. &nb= sp;All interested researchers and their teams must contact Genome BC = in advance of submitting any project proposal to discuss the objectives and deliverables of the research progra= m.  
 
BC researchers who are co-applicants on projects led by other Genome Centre= s in Canada are encouraged to contact Genome BC to determined whether their= project is eligible for research funding for the BC portion of the project= .   
 
If you are interested in learning more about this program, or receiv= ing the RFA when it is released, please contact David Charest, Director, Se= ctor Development, and Sector Manager for the agri-foods and agriculture sec= tor at dcharest@genomebc.ca. David will be away from the office until April 7; in his absence, please f= eel free to contact Gabe Kalmar, VP, Sector Development at gkalmar@genomebc.ca.
