Programs to support the next generation of scientists

Apply for funding to support your social science or humanities research that explores how AI and automation are transforming scientific discovery, including the ethical, legal and economic consequences.

This 12-week program provides funding for undergraduates who self-identify as members of equity-deserving groups to gain experiential training in topics related to accelerated materials and molecules discovery.

An opportunity to gain hands-on experience in a research residency at the AC’s homebase, the University of Toronto.

Research grants help drive our approach to advancing materials discovery. These grants not only allow the AC to enhance the scope and depth of our research endeavours but also facilitate the translation of groundbreaking discoveries into real-world applications.

These grants aim to support faculty members and trainees at the University of Toronto to launch projects, programming, or events that address EDI barriers in STEM.

The AC’s caregiving grants will provide research funding support to Associate and Assistant Professors members with caregiving responsibilities. These resources aim to mitigate the impact of caregiving duties by maintaining research group productivity during caregiving leave.

A national training initiative designed to prepare trainees across Canada for the growing integration of AI and automation in chemistry and material sciences and the rise of self-driving labs
