BC Environmental and Occupational Health Research Network

The SOF program, previously referred to as the ‘Science’ Opportunities Fund, was initially launched on April 11, 2008 as a $2M pilot program. SOF is now an on-going program with four intakes planned over approximately two years, and fills a much needed funding gap with an additional investment of $8M, half of which is provided by Genome BC.
The program is expected to support modest endeavors typically in the range of $25,000-$200,000. Genome BC will provide no more than $200,000 with one-time funding which will catalyze or seed significant new programs and initiatives of key strategic importance to the BC life sciences community.
