The CCDC for the Community
From partnerships and initiatives, awards and sponsorships to PhD studentships and FAIRE grants, we are passionate about enabling everyone to benefit from the world’s comprehensive and up-to-date database of crystal structures.
Partnerships and Initiatives
A number of partnerships and initiatives are coordinated by the CCDC with the aim of highlighting the value of the CSD and it’s derived software in key areas of education and research.
Awards and Sponsorship
We sponsor international scientific awards for scientists through the auspices of appropriate professional organisations, who are responsible for seeking nominations, judging poster presentations and making arrangements for award presentations.
PhD Studentships
We know that training the next generation of scientists is vital to advance science as a whole. We sponsor PhD students each year as part of our charitable mission to advance science for the public benefit.
People in the Community
We are fortunate to have strong links in industry and academia who provide scientific consulting and guidance to shape the future direction of the CCDC as we grow.
FAIRE Grants
The mission of the Frank H. Allen International Research and Education Programme (FAIRE) is to support research and education in underrepresented communities and make structural data more accessible worldwide.
