This request will fund programs of the Institute of Particle Physics (IPP), a trans-Canadian organization that promotes excellence in particle physics research and advanced education, coordinates national and international collaborations in particle physics research, and that serves as the focal point for particle physics activities across Canada and a point of contact for research partners in labs and universities around the world. The grant will primarily be used for the salary of the IPP Research Scientists hosted at universities across Canada who provide the vital, highly skilled personnel support for a wide variety of particle physics projects. The IPP Research Scientists are critical for enabling the faculty, students and postdocs at any Canadian university to effectively access and scientifically exploit the most productive and highest impact particle physics research facilities in the world.  This grant also will support:  - Canadian-hosted workshops, schools and conferences intended to facilitate attendance by HQP;  - IPP student summer fellowships enabling undergrads to participate in CERN's Summer Student Programme; -  High School Teachers to attend a CERN  ProD program; - IPP annual thematic workshops;  -  A program for HQP  to promote new international theory collaborations; and  - Travel associated with IPP operations IPP, a non-profit corporation founded in 1971, is owned by the Institutional Members and operated by 16 Institutional and 200 Individual Members, almost all of whom are faculty, to promote particle physics in Canad. IPP has been funded through NSERC since 1978, when NSERC was created by the Government of Canada. The Institutional Members appoint a Board of Trustees, which has the legal responsibility for the actions of the Institute. The Individual Members elect a six-member Scientific Council, which is responsible for the scientific program and the operation of IPP. IPP Councillors are elected for three year staggered terms so that two IPP Councillors come off and two come on Council each year. The IPP Council is chaired by the Director of IPP, who is appointed by the Board of Trustees and ratified by the Individual Members for a five year term. The IPP Members meet annually and provide both direct and, through their elected Councillors, indirect input into the operations of the Institute. IPP resources are allocated by Council in a clear and transparent manner and communicated to the membership in various ways, including via published meeting minutes.

这一请求将资助粒子物理研究所(IPP)的项目，IPP是一个跨加拿大的组织，旨在促进粒子物理研究和先进教育的卓越，协调国内和国际粒子物理研究方面的合作，并作为加拿大各地粒子物理活动的联络点，以及世界各地实验室和大学的研究合作伙伴的联络点。这笔赠款将主要用于支付加拿大各地大学的IPP研究科学家的工资，这些科学家为各种粒子物理项目提供至关重要的高技能人员支持。IPP研究科学家对于使加拿大任何一所大学的教职员工、学生和博士后能够有效地利用和科学地利用世界上最具生产力和最大影响的粒子物理研究设施至关重要。这笔赠款还将支持：由加拿大主办的旨在促进HQP出席的讲习班、学校和会议；-IPP学生暑期奖学金，使本科生能够参加CERN的暑期学生计划；-帮助高中教师参加CERN的TPROD计划；-IPP年度专题研讨会；-HQP计划，以促进新的国际理论合作；以及与IPP运营相关的旅行IPP，成立于1971年，由机构成员所有，由16名机构成员和200名个人成员运营，几乎所有成员都是教师，以促进加拿大的粒子物理。IPP自1978年以来一直通过NSERC提供资金，当时NSERC由加拿大政府创建。机构成员任命一个董事会，该委员会对研究所的行动负有法律责任。个别成员选举一个由六名成员组成的科学理事会，负责IPP的科学计划和运作。议会议员的任期为三年，交错任期，因此每年有两名议会议员下台，两名议员进入议会。IPP理事会由IPP主任担任主席，由董事会任命，并由个别成员批准，任期五年。议会政策方案成员每年举行会议，为研究所的运作提供直接和通过其选举产生的理事会成员的间接投入。IPP资源由理事会以明确和透明的方式分配，并以各种方式传达给成员，包括通过公布的会议纪要。
