EARLY RESEARCHER AWARD (ERA) PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The Early Researcher Awards program (ERA) helps promising, recently-appointed Ontario researchers build their
research teams of graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, research assistants
and associates. The goal of the program is to improve Ontario’s ability to
attract and retain the best and brightest research talent from around the
world. Each researcher receives $140,000 funding through the program.
