Long Citation Brian Hayden has developed and tested hypotheses to explain how complex human social organization emerged in egalitarian societies. He argues that ambitious individuals create multiple strategies to acquire prestige and social power, notably through manipulation of surpluses and possession of arcane knowledge, and that these ambitions transform societies. His fieldwork throughout the world provides an empirical basis for hypotheses that explore the origins of agriculture, the function of religion, and the emergence of social inequality. Controversial and influential, his work has been widely published.

Long Citation Dr. R. Brian Haynes is the world leader in medical information research and knowledge translation as a means to improve clinical and health care through improving the retrieval, distillation, synthesis, dissemination and application of validated health care knowledge. He was the first person ever to systematically research a worldwide array of clinical medical journal articles on diagnosis, prognosis, therapeutics, economics, and quality-of-care, establishing that less than 1% of them were both scientifically valid and clinically applicable. He then led the worldwide scientific effort to correct this deficiency by creating a health knowledge refinery and leading the scientific development of both evidence-based journals and internet information services.

Joseph Heath is an international leader in political philosophy and the theory of rationality, as well as one of Canada's leading public intellectuals. He has made fundamental contributions in two areas: to the understanding of the relations between rationality, morality, and culture, and to the foundations of business ethics.

Joseph Heath a acquis une réputation internationale dans le domaine de la philosophie politique et de la théorie sur la rationalité. Il est aussi l’un des intellectuels les plus en vue au Canada. Les deux volets de ses recherches fondamentales sont, d’une part, la compréhension des liens existant entre la rationalité, la moralité et la culture et, d’autre part, les fondements de l’éthique des affaires.

MICHELE CHRISTINE HEATH, Professor, Department of Botany, University of Toronto. Dr. Heath's cytological studies on rust fungi have not only contributed significantly to the understanding of how these obligate plant pathogens interact at a cellular level with their hosts and nonhosts, but also have allowed her to develop more widely applicable models of the basis and evolution of host parasite specificity. In addition, she was the first to develop a technique to induce rust haustoria away from the living plant, and to discover, in a rust fungus, a cultivar-specific elicitor of defense responses that may be of major importance in determining host specificity.

Dr. Ajay Heble is an internationally renowned scholar, a visionary arts leader, and an innovative community builder whose remarkable achievements demonstrate the power of art to change lives and to improve communities. Dr. Heble led development of a ground- breaking new field of interdisciplinary research and scholarly inquiry: critical studies in improvisation. He is the founding director of the International Institute for Critical Studies in Improvisation (IICSI), a partnered research institute.

Ajay Heble est un chercheur de renommée internationale, un chef de file visionnaire dans le domaine des arts et un bâtisseur communautaire innovant dont les réalisations remarquables démontrent le pouvoir de l’art sur le changement de vie et sur l’amélioration des communautés. Prof. Heble a dirigé le développement d’un nouveau domaine révolutionnaire de recherche interdisciplinaire et d’enquête scientifique : les études critiques sur l’improvisation. Il est le directeur fondateur de l’International Institute for Critical Studies in Improvisation (IICSI), un institut de recherche travaillant avec des partenariats.

HECKY, Robert E. - Biology Department, University of Waterloo Long Citation (for publication and press release) Robert Hecky is world-renowned for his work on African great lakes and northern reservoirs. For over thirty years, he has led international groups investigating the hydrology, chemistry, biology and paleoecology of these ecosystems, including the effects of land-use change, nutrient dynamics, alien species, human population growth, climate change and mercury pollution. His research has led to the development of an excellent research laboratory in Uganda, and to the understanding of how climate, land-use and air quality have affected the great lakes of east Africa. His comparative studies have also greatly increased our understanding of the environmental impacts of northern reservoirs.

Hekimi, Siegfried - Molecular Biology and Genetic - McGill University Siegfried Hekimi has advanced our understanding of the causes of animal aging, in particular by discovering and studying long-lived mutants and using them to test theories of aging. For example, his work suggests that free radicals might not be the cause of aging, in contrast to what was previously widely believed. ------------------ Hekimi, Siegfried - Molecular Biology and Genetics - McGill University Siegfried Hekimi’s work has advanced our understanding of the mechanisms that dictate animal longevity. He has contributed significantly in pioneering and validating the genetic approach to the study of aging using nematodes and mice. Specifically, his work has demonstrated that: 1) There are evolutionarily conserved genes whose function limits lifespan, 2) Such aging genes can be grouped into independent genetic pathways, 3) There is a positive causal relationship between mitochondrial electron transport and aging. 4) Molecular damage from mitochondrial reactive oxygen species is not the link between mitochondrial function and aging.

Professor G.K. Helleiner has an outstanding record in research, teaching and public service. He is a world authority on the role of transnational manufacturing firms in the development of poor countries. He has also made many contributions to the economic literature concerning Africa. He is an outstanding Canadian scholar in the field of economic development. In addition to his scholarly activities, Professor Helleiner is deeply involved in the work of private and public agencies devoted to problems of development and he has given perception and authority to many deliberations.

John Helliwell is one of Canada's younger economists, whose work is widely recognized internationally both in governments and in academic research. His earlier studies of the effect of governmental monetary and fiscal policies on private and public spending or new capital goods developed into a series of important research endeavors for two royal commissions, the Bank of Canada and various environmental and consumer councils. Not only did he help to construct RDX2, an economic simulation model of the Canadian economy, but later to 'link' it to similar models of economies with which Canada trades. More recently he has turned to the effects on the Canadian economy of proposed public and private stabilization and energy policies. All these activities have led to very numerous contributions to books and journals and to speeches to groups in and out of government and university.

Andrew Hendry is an evolutionary ecologist and a leading figure in the fusion of ecology and evolution, based on his work on rapid evolution in natural populations of fish and birds. His fieldwork, review papers and books have been instrumental in changing our view of the species from a static category to a continually evolving dynamic entity.

Andrew Hendry est un écologiste évolutionniste et un chef de file dans le domaine de la fusion de l'écologie et de l'évolution, sur la base de ses travaux sur l'évolution rapide au sein des populations naturelles de poissons et d'oiseaux. Ses travaux sur le terrain, ses articles et ses livres ont contribué à modifier notre vision de l’espèce, qui est passée d'une catégorie statique à une entité dynamique en constante évolution.
