The Daniel Langlois Foundation in Montreal offered a Researchers in Residence program supporting doctoral or post-doctoral researchers and equivalent artists exploring innovative approaches at the intersection of art, science, and technology, particularly new media. Residents worked at the Centre for Research and Documentation (CR+D), accessing computer workstations, digital collections, high-speed internet, and technical support. The program ran actively from around to but appears inactive today, with a funding moratorium noted in for other grants.
