Pour les mordus de politique scientifique 🇨🇦:Notre comité consultatif sur le système fédéral de soutien à la rech (https://ised-isde.canada.ca/site/comite-soutien-federal-recherche/fr) était à #cspc2022. @vianne_timmons

For 🇨🇦 science policy nuts: Our Advisory Panel on the Federal Research Support System (https://ised-isde.canada.ca/site/panel-federal-research-support/en) was at #cspc2022. Vianne Timmons, Gilles Patry
and I had a morning chat/townhall with participants. Great comments from the attendees https://youtu.be/sBta6OrKwFE

100% of the audience at #CSPC2022 supported the health data charter. The more I think about, the more I believe charter is important. Benefiting from health data is clearly a human right. Done.

Ce matin à #CSPC2022 avec Gilles Patry et Vianne Timmons nous avons parlé des travaux du Comité consultatif sur le système fédéral de soutien à la recherche.

If you take out immigrant women from 🇨🇦's STEM-trained workforce, the total number of women left is less than 16.29%

Biggest challenge for @CanBlackSci@twitter.com: no source of operating funding

Next, @WidowWeb@twitter.com, co-founder of @CanBlackSci@twitter.com: black inclusion in STEM

Changing the reality of "lonely only", born out of entrenched racism in science ➡️ ex) 🇨🇦tri-council gap in funding success

↪️Little accountability, coordination, "one-and-done" bandaid initiatives
#CSPC2022

An anti-racism lens is required to be applied in all stages of research for excellence in science.

Barriers:
- diversity (all aspects of hiring)
- inclusion (toxicity, marginalization, and workplace racism)
#CSPC2022

Next panel, equity and anti-racism in science:

Dr. Harpreet Kocchar, president of @GovCanHealth@twitter.com: anti-racism is a best-practice of science and essential to maximize science done both within and outside of the government

#CSPC2022

Sometimes #innovation talks fall on a few buzzwords or phrases. Today's buzzword (from many speakers) is referring to 🇨🇦 as "punching above its weight."

Fact (in many fields), but good #SciPol is essential to move from a nascent (deep tech?) hot topic to beyond.
#CSPC2022

A few topics from @ISED_CA@twitter.com's ADM, Nipun Vats:

A national Lab to Market program enable graduate students to take their innovations to market

#Quantum: citing National Quantum Strategy, "launching in the not-to-distant-future" 👀

Science and research play a vital role in improving our society and growing our economy.

That's why today at #CSPC2022 we announced $1 billion to:

👩‍🔬 Support our world class researchers

🔬 Upgrade science infrastructure

🧬 Grow Canada’s position in the world

And my #SciPol day at #CSPC2022 beings!

Talking on the recent (re)formulation of a permanent standing committee in the House of Commons on S&T

Scientists ↔️ parliamentarians ↔️ Canadians
