One-year extension available to Discovery Grant holders

All grantees holding an active Discovery Grant as of April 2020 can elect to receive a one-year extension with funds at their current funding level.

Extensions will be offered only during the final year of a grant and all eligible grant holders will be contacted directly by NSERC at time of renewal with further instructions. The Office of Research and Innovation Services will receive notification of all applicants electing to receive an extension.

Note: accepting this funded extension will disqualify grantees from that year’s Discovery Grants competition.

For more information, consult the webpage regarding this funded extension.

If you require further information, contact NSERC at resgrant@nserc-crsng.gc.ca or your ORIS co-ordinator: Michelle Nevett for science and business or Sara Kenno for engineering and human kinetics.
