Bio-innovations Asia, a collaboration between Asian Institute of Technolgy (AIT) and Canada’s International Development Research Centre (IDRC), aims to stimulate and enable research on bio-innovation systems in Asia that addresses poverty alleviation, and to initiate and support the building of a network of researchers and scholars committed to understanding and enhancing bio-innovation towards economically progressive and socially responsible ways.
A total of 108 concept notes were received for the awards. The proposals were reviewed and evaluated by the AIT Core Team for merit in accordance with the published criteria and the program’s focus. Out of the total concept notes received, 15 were shortlisted and requested to submit fully developed proposals. These were then evaluated by the project’s advisory committee and seven were selected for the grants award.
