The Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships were Canada’s most prestigious postdoctoral award, supporting top-tier researchers from around the world with $70,000 per year for two years to advance their research careers in health, natural sciences, engineering, and social sciences. The program focused on attracting and retaining exceptional talent to contribute to Canada’s research and innovation landscape. As of 2025, the Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships program has concluded and been replaced by the Canada Research Training Awards Suite (CRTAS).
