Genomic applications partnership program

If successful at the Pitch, the team will be invited to submit a Supplementary Proposal. The GAPP is highly competitive. If you have a project you are interested in bringing forward for a GAPP application, please direct enquiries to lmascarenhas genomeprairie. This is an ongoing process with new projects being awarded every six months.

Potential applicants are encouraged to contact Genome Prairie prior to starting the application process. Projects will be evaluated based on their technical merit, relevance to genomics users and potential for delivering major benefits to Canada, as well as on sound management and financial practices.

For the purposes of this program, end-users include stakeholders that are interested in using the results of the genomics research from academia and implementing innovations into the market for commercialization or public-good purposes. This could include industry companies, industry consortia, government departments, or other not-for-profit organizations.

Objectives: Promote the application of genomics-derived solutions to address key sector challenges or opportunities facing users. Promote commercialization of genomics technologies by enabling the transfer of genomics-derived solutions from academia to users as well as de-risking and incentivizing follow-on investment from public and private partners to increase the socioeconomic impact of genomics research by accelerating its translation to application or market.

Create and foster a more productive relationship between academia and users.
