Why not inject the funds directly into the Discovery Grants budget and let GSCs distribute them as they see fit?
The recent evaluation of the Discovery Grants Program indicated that the program is successful in supporting a diversified base of research capability. However, because of the significant growth in the population of researchers and the resulting increased budgetary pressures, the program is not as successful in fostering research excellence in order that outstanding researchers might have the necessary resources to reach their full potential. The Discovery Accelerator Supplements are intended to help address this issue. In parallel to the supplements, NSERC will also discuss, with the GSCs, how to better foster excellence as part of the Discovery Grants process.
