BENEFACTOR
The CREATE Training Program in Bionanomachines is a Canadian graduate program in structural biology, biophysics, and macromolecular chemistry. The Bionano program provides funding for undergraduate and graduate training through stipends, travel awards, workshops, laboratory rotations, and international exchanges. Funded by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC).
 
The Canadian Light Source (CLS) is Canada’s national centre for synchrotron research and a global centre of excellence in synchrotron science and its applications. Located in Saskatoon, the CLS runs the Canadian Macromolecular Crystallography Facility - two beamlines enabling high-resolution structural studies of proteins, nucleic acids and other macromolecules, satisfying the requirements of the most challenging and diverse crystallographic experiments.
 

The Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC) provides invaluable structural knowledge to the scientific community both for academic research, teaching and the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. The CCDC curates the ever-growing database of small molecule crystal structures, the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD); our expertise, software and database tools benefit a broad spectrum of users.
