Suning Wang's innovative approaches to luminescent materials and inorganic chemistry have contributed to opening up a significant new research field: photo-responsive organoboron materials and chemistry. Her studies on the phenomena of photochromism, photoelimination and switchable luminescence of organoboron systems, together with her pioneering scholarship on blue fluorescent and blue phosphorescent emitters for organic light emitting diodes have reinvigorated research on organoboron photochemistry and organoboron-based materials chemistry worldwide.

L’approche innovante de Sunning Wang aux matériaux luminescents ainsi qu’à la chimie inorganique a contribuée à l’ouverture significative de nouveaux champs de recherches: Les matériaux organoboriques photosensibles et leur chimie. Ses études des phénomènes de photochromisme, de photo-élimination et de luminescence interchangeable des systèmes organoboriques, de concert avec ses travaux pionniers sur les émetteurs en fluorescence bleue et phosphorescence bleue pour les diodes organiques émettrices de lumière ont revigorés la recherche sur la photochimie des organoboriques ainsi que sur la chimie des matériaux basée sur les organoboriques à travers le monde.

Dr. Watson is distinguished for his work on the theory of molecular spectroscopy. His studies have led to simplifications of the fundamental Hamiltonian, recognition of specific symmetry properties, and a deeper understanding of the isotopic dependence of molecular parameters. An examination of centrifugal distortion effects led to a reduction in the number of parameters of asymmetric top molecules, and to the prediction of forbidden rotational spectra in certain non-polar molecules, including methane. His recent work includes the theory of the Jahn-Teller effect in the Rydberg states of H3 and D3, the assignment of the Schüler bands of NH4 and ND4 and the assignment of the Schuster bands of NH3 and ND3.

R.L. Watts is Canada's leading expert on comparative federalism. His "New Federations: Experiments in the Commonwealth" is a classic in the field. It has been followed by distinguished monographs, articles and chapters in collections on federalism in diverse settings.
He is regularly invited to lecture, be a resident scholar, present papers and design colloquia in numerous countries on five continents. He is the Past President of the International Association of Centres for the Study of Federalism.
Watts has also published significant work on post secondary education.

ERNEST ROY WAYGOOD, Department of Botany, University of Manitoba, is an outstanding teacher and an able investigator of the problems of plant metabolism, particularly those of the green leaf. He came to Winnipeg at a time of active concern over the renewed threat of wheat rust and has provided workers in that field with ever increasing knowledge of the metabolism of healthy leaves upon which an understanding of the diseased state must be based. His work on the metabolism of indole acetic acid, benzimidazole, and kinetin, the biosynthesis of nucleotides and porphyrins, the plant phosphorylases, and his current work on the biochemical aspects of photosynthesis, have met wide acclaim and establish him as an authority on the enzymes of leaves.

Dimitri Weiss, qui a été un des premiers docteurs en économie et administration des entreprises (1969) et le premier docteur d'État ès sciences de gestion en France (1975), est professeur à l'Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne et directeur du département Gestion des ressources humaines et des relations d'emploi à l'Institut d'Administration des Entreprises, où il travaille depuis 1962.
Il est l'auteur de quelque 160 publications dans les domaines -dans lesquels il a joué un rôle de pionnier- des relations industrielles, de la gestion des ressources humaines, du management, de la communication et du consommérisme, parus en sept langues et douze pays, dont le Canada.
Il a fait connaître les auteurs et les travaux canadiens, particulièrement le « Dictionnaire canadien » de Gérard Dion, sur les innombrables tribunes internationales où il a dispensé son savoir. L'intérêt du professeur Weiss pour le Canada, le nombre et la qualité de ses travaux et de ses publications, ainsi
que son extraordinaire rayonnement à travers le monde ne sauraient être mieux reconnus qu'en l'accueillant comme membre étranger dans l'Académie des lettres et des sciences humaines de la Société royale du Canada.
