Banting Research Foundation

The Banting Research Foundation supports young, promising Canadian researchers at the outset of their careers, doing a broad range of basic medical research. Since 1925, our grants have been instrumental in launching the careers of many scientists who have gone on to make medical discoveries that have impacted global health. These include the purification of the anti-blood clotting agent, heparin, and the creation of the heart pacemaker.

Canadian Million Dollar Round Table Charitable Foundation

The Million Dollar Round Table Charitable Foundation Canada is a public charity, incorporated as a non-profit organization in Canada on November 17th, 1994.

Keeping this in mind, please note that applications received after the stated deadline will be held until the following Fall. Updated documents may be required.

Terry Fox Foundation

The Terry Fox Foundation is responsible for supporting close to $20 million in discovery based research each year in Canada - all monies raised outside Canada must be distributed to (a) an institute approved by the Foundation and its advisors or (b) remitted to Canada. The Terry Fox Research Institute (TFRI) is a recipient of TFF funding for translational research. TFRI is an exciting new initiative whose goal is to translate rapidly today's best science into better cancer treatment and diagnosis for all Canadians. The Institute will bring scientists and clinicians together across the country into a functionally integrated, geographically dispersed Institute with nodes in several provinces.
