We are pleased to announce the 2022/23 Grants for Catalyzing Research Clusters (GCRC) Competition.

This competition is open to emerging and established clusters of research excellence in all disciplines on the Vancouver campus, and we welcome applications from both previously funded and new clusters. Applicants may select a budget term of one or two years. Cluster leads must submit a notice of intent to apply through the VP Research & Innovation’s enhanced online application system at https://apply.research.ubc.ca by November 1, 2021

Details of this funding competition, the application process and upcoming information sessions on October 6 and 19 can be found at www.research.ubc.ca/GCRC

Grants are enabled by the UBC Vancouver Academic Excellence Funds in support of Research Excellence Strategy 6 (Collaborative Clusters) in UBC’s strategic plan.

GCRC competitions are open to clusters led by researchers at our Vancouver campus. Clusters being led by researchers at our Okanagan campus are supported through the Eminence program.
