Funding, News and Announcements

Established in 2019, the New Digital Research Infrastructure Organization (NDRIO) is a national not-for-profit organization that is working with other ecosystem partners and stakeholders across the country to help provide Canadian researchers the digital tools, services and infrastructure they need to support leading-edge scientific excellence, research, innovation and advancement across all disciplines. Its mandate is critical to all of Canada’s academic researchers, our country’s ability to remain globally competitive, and our collective ability to benefit society as a whole.

The Researcher Council is a critical component of NDRIO’s commitment to involve the research community as it designs a new service delivery model supporting Canada’s new Digital Research Infrastructure (DRI) strategy. The Researcher Council will make recommendations to the NDRIO Board and management on the delivery of DRI infrastructure and services, and ensure that a diversity of researcher voices is represented by NDRIO.

A well-rounded, robust and diverse Researcher Council is an important component of NDRIO’s governance model, and part of the organization’s By-Laws. Research Council members will represent the diversity of the national research enterprise.

This is a prominent opportunity for seasoned, mid-career and emerging researchers to make a valuable impact.

Nominations and applications are being accepted until Sunday, August 23, 2020.
