Last cohort of renewed funding for NCE Program networks

The Networks of Centres of Excellence (NCE) is pleased to announce renewed funding for five NCE networks. This support, totalling $80.7 million, will enable these networks to continue their work in fields of great importance to Canada.

This funding is the result of the last NCE Program renewal competition. The below networks will continue to address challenges in important areas like improving the health of our aging population, solving some of our most pressing health issues and helping children with neurodevelopmental disabilities and their families.

Over the next several years, funding for the NCE program will be gradually transferred to the New Frontiers in Research Fund. The five renewed networks will continue to be funded by the NCE until the end of their grant.
