Bonjour, Les visites de mobilisation réalisées par le Conseil de recherches en sciences naturelles et en génie (CRSNG) sont utiles, car elles permettent à l'organisme et au milieu de la recherche d'échanger de l'information et d'établir des liens. Au cours des cinq dernières années, des représentants du CRSNG ont effectué 54 visites dans 39 universités. Le CRSNG prévoit continuer d'établir des liens avec le milieu de la recherche grâce à ces visites. En outre, ces visites donnent au milieu de la recherche une occasion de poser des questions et d'obtenir de l'information directement auprès du personnel du CRSNG. Les visites d'une durée de trois heures comprennent des exposés donnés par des employés du CRSNG, qui sont entrecoupés de périodes de questions réservées aux participants. Le CRSNG offre aussi des webinaires qui visent à susciter la participation du milieu de la recherche (voir les renseignements ci-dessous). Nous invitons tous les établissements intéressés à recevoir des représentants du CRSNG à communiquer avec nous (resgrant(a)nserc-crsng.gc.ca<mailto:resgrant@nserc-crsng.gc.ca>). De plus, nous tenterons autant que possible d'informer les établissements lorsque des représentants du CRSNG seront dans leur région, car ceux-ci pourraient en profiter pour faire une visite de mobilisation.
