Description

Expert Consultant and Peer Reviewer for National Research Council of Canada (NRC) for the 5th Phase of the Genomics and Health Initiative (GHI) 2010

Research Funding for the fifth phase of GHI (GHI-5) will be approximately $10 million per year, and is anticipated to cover a three-year period from April 2011 to March 2014. The renewal of the GHI Program is a competitive process. Participating NRC institutes are required to submit Letters of Intent and Full Proposals, as well as provide at least 50% of total research project costs. I was invited to act as an external peer reviewer as part of the NRC-GHI project selection process. My comments are provided to an NRC Expert Panel to aid with the final decision-making and resource allocation.
