Announcing funded Research Excellence Clusters at UBC Vancouver

4 March, 2024

Twenty-five Research Excellence Clusters led by researchers at UBC Vancouver have received grant funding through the 2024/25 Grants for Catalyzing Research Clusters Competition (GCRC). A further 14 clusters are being supported in the second year of their existing grant.

Research Excellence Clusters are interdisciplinary networks of researchers addressing societal and cultural problems, and working together to solve challenges that transcend traditional boundaries associated with departments, institutions, and funding agencies. They are a key component of Strategy 6 of the Strategic Plan in support of Research Excellence. The GCRC was jointly created by the Office of the Vice-President, Research & Innovation and the Office of the Provost & Vice-President, Academic, UBC Vancouver.
