Government of Canada: Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships

The Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships program provides funding to the very best postdoctoral applicants, both nationally and internationally, who will positively contribute to the country's economic, social and research-based growth.
The objective of the Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships program is to attract and retain top-tier postdoctoral talent, both nationally and internationally, develop their leadership potential, and position them for success as research leaders of tomorrow. Seventy fellowships are awarded annually.

Fellowships are distributed equally among:

the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR)
the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC)
the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC).
The duration of the award is 2 years (non-renewable).

The Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships program is unique in its emphasis on the synergy between the following:

applicant – individual merit and potential to launch a successful research-intensive career
host institution – commitment to the research program and alignment with the institution's strategic priorities.
An applicant to the Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships program must complete their application in full collaboration with the proposed host institution.
