The Government of Quebec and partner organizations provide additional funding, bringing the total research investment to $106 million.

成人VR视频 was awarded $42 million through the Canada Foundation for Innovation鈥檚 to support 10 research infrastructure projects led by researchers at the University.

The (IF) supports Canadian post-secondary institutions, research hospitals, and non-profit research institutions in acquiring and developing cutting-edge infrastructure to advance their research capacity and foster world-class research.

This transformative investment empowers 成人VR视频 teams to accelerate world-changing research, from breakthroughs in human health to discoveries that illuminate the cosmos.

The 10 成人VR视频-led projects will be carried out in collaboration with partner institutions across Canada. 成人VR视频 researchers are also involved in eight projects led by other institutions.

The funding was announced Friday, March 13 by M茅lanie Joly, Minister of Industry and Minister responsible for Canada Economic Development for Quebec Region.

The supports Canadian post-secondary institutions, research hospitals, and non-profit research institutions in acquiring and developing cutting-edge infrastructure to advance their research capacity and foster world-class research. For the 2025 competition, the CFI introduced new funding streams to support exploration and knowledge generation projects in the social sciences, humanities and arts, as well as the creation, renewal and upgrade of core research facilities.

鈥湷扇薞R视频 is grateful to the Canada Foundation for Innovation, and the Governments of Canada and Quebec for this essential investment in research led by 成人VR视频 and by our partner institutions across the country,鈥� said Dominique B茅rub茅, Vice-President, Research and Innovation at 成人VR视频. 鈥淭his funding strengthens 成人VR视频鈥檚 ability to deliver on the priorities outlined in our Strategic Research Plan by fostering transformative collaboration and providing our researchers with the advanced tools and facilities they need to drive innovation and generate meaningful impact for society.鈥�

Full list of funded projects appears below; we spotlight three:

Advancing research at the intersection of music, science and technology

Canadians of every age and background listen to music, which supports thousands of jobs and generates hundreds of millions of dollars in domestic sales each year. Given music鈥檚 cultural and economic impact, understanding how music affects our lives 鈥� from the role of technology in shaping how music is created and experienced, to the science of performance and composition 鈥� is increasingly important.

The (CIRMMT), based at 成人VR视频 and led by Fabrice Marandola and Marcelo Wanderley, professors at the Schulich School of Music, is to receive $9 million in total funding. The world-renowned multi-institutional research facility is dedicated to integrated studies of music, acoustics, cognitive science, engineering, digital media and performance sciences. The funding will support renovations and equipment upgrades across CIRMMT鈥檚 eight CFI-backed research labs, as well as enhancements to the Centre鈥檚 technical and administrative capacity.

By incorporating the latest advances in immersive systems, interactive tools, computational modelling and artificial intelligence and machine learning, the project will enable new collaborative research in music creation, performance, sound environments and applied performance science, helping to keep CIRMMT at the forefront of interdisciplinary research across music, science and technology worldwide.

Enabling breakthroughs in biomedical and life science research
Guillaume Bourque, professor in the Department of Human Genetics and Director of Bioinformatics at the 成人VR视频 Genome Centre, received $4.6 million total in funding to support technology development and the implementation of new services and management activities for the (C3G). The project team also includes researchers from Universit茅 Laval and Universit茅 de Sherbrooke.

Directed by Bourque, the C3G is a national platform providing services in genomic data analysis, software development and data management. Since its establishment as a national core facility in 2015, the C3G has supported more than 900 projects from over 450 research groups across every Canadian province and 28 other countries.

As genomic initiatives expand nationwide in areas including precision health, pandemic preparedness and the environment, data processing and interpretation have become major limiting factors for discovery and innovation. This CFI investment will enable the C3G to better meet the needs of projects across the life sciences by bolstering advanced analytics capabilities, including machine learning, data management and secure computing services.


Equipping astrophysics researchers to explore the 鈥榤icrosecond sky鈥�

, Canada Excellence Research Chair in Transient Astrophysics and Professor of Physics, and , Lorne Trottier Chair in Astrophysics and Cosmology, Distinguished James 成人VR视频 Chair and Director of the Trottier Space Institute at 成人VR视频, will use $13.6 million in total funding to open a new window on the universe by exploring the 鈥渕icrosecond sky.鈥� The project brings together collaborators from the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, the University of British Columbia and the University of Toronto.

Astronomers have recently discovered that the cosmos is filled with fleeting radio flashes known as fast radio bursts (FRBs), which originate millions of times further away than stars in our own galaxy. These bursts act as unprecedented probes of the structure and evolution of the universe. Advances in computing now make it possible to search for even faster radio signals, potentially revealing new types of extreme astrophysical phenomena.

Hessels, Kaspi and their team aim to enable the world's first wide-field search for microsecond-scale cosmic transients by leveraging Canada's and 成人VR视频鈥檚 leadership in two world-leading CFI-funded telescopes: CHIME and CHORD, the latter under construction. Both are in British Columbia, with CHIME outrigger stations spanning North America and similar CHORD outriggers planned. While CHIME casts a broad net to discover new astronomical sources, CHORD will dig deeper and see farther.

The new CFI funding builds on these major research investments by upgrading the computing systems attached to the telescopes鈥� antennas, enabling researchers to do much more with the signals received from the sky. Operating in tandem, CHIME and CHORD can provide a view of the sky with unprecedented sensitivity and enable the detection of ultra鈥慺ast radio bursts. A new Virtual Telescope Command Centre at 成人VR视频 will support instrument monitoring and help researchers manage and analyze the vast data streams required to uncover these rare cosmic signals.
