Please distribute the attached Current Funding Opportunities ORS Weekly Updatehttp://umanitoba.ca/research/ors/media/Current_Funding_Opportunities_Weekly.pdf (October 6/17) to researchers within your unit.

The ORS Upcoming Major Funding Opportunitieshttp://pasweb.cc.umanitoba.ca/extapp/ors/pubapp/umfo.php search is maintained by the Office of Research Services (ORS). It promotes current and specific funding opportunities identified by ORS (both Canadian and International).

SPINhttps://spin.infoedglobal.com/Home/SOLRSearch is a funding opportunity database owned by InfoEd Global and contains programs from more than 10,000 global sponsors (both Canadian and International). This site allows for keyword setup to receive funding alerts.

ORS deadlines for submitting research proposals and Funding Application Approval Forms, (unless otherwise posted) are as follows:

For large, complex grant applications, e.g., tri-agency major programs, those that require matching funds and/or additional institutional support, etc.:

* 2 weeks in advance of agency deadline

For other standard grants:

* 7 days in advance of agency deadline

As a reminder, researchers should work with the University's Research Facilitatorshttp://umanitoba.ca/research/ors/research_facilitators.html early in the proposal development stage, for assistance in strategic research planning and proposal review.

Thank you.
