CRYSTAL Pilot Program Competition Results
NSERC is pleased to announce the results of the first Centres for Research in
Youth, Science Teaching and Learning (CRYSTAL) competition.
NSERC received 41 Letters of Intent from interested applicants in response
to the 2004 competition call. Of these, 16 were selected to submit
full proposals, based on input from external referees as well as considerations
of geographic and thematic distribution. Five applications were selected for
funding of up to $200,000 per year for five years. One centre was
also awarded $30,000 per year for the additional role of overall national networking
and leadership.
