Cynthia Sugars is widely considered to have laid the groundwork for the field of Canadian settler-colonial literary studies within broader international debates. Her richly historicized analyses have shaped fundamental discussions about some of the most pressing issues of our time, such as Indigenous-settler relations, multiculturalism, national identity, and Canada’s position in a global world. Her work has deepened our understanding of the ways that Canadians have both imagined and interrogated stories of national belonging.

LONG Shirley Sullivan has received international acclaim for her contributions to one of the most complex and fundamental issues of intellectual history - the development of the cognitive process in the early Greeks. In six books and over sixty articles, she has developed a unique methodology by applying a psychological approach to her comprehensive knowledge of the Classical languages and literatures. Her work is of compelling interest to philosophers and psychologists as well as to classicists, and constitutes an indispensable resource for those engaged in the study of early thought.

SUMAILA, Rashid – Institute for the Oceans and Fisheries, The University of British Columbia Rashid Sumaila is one of the world’s most innovative researchers on the future of the oceans, integrating the social, economic and fisheries sciences to build novel pathways towards sustainable fisheries. His work has challenged today’s approaches to marine governance, generating exciting new ways of thinking about our relationship to the marine biosphere, such as protecting the high seas as a “fish bank” for the world and using “intergeneration discount rates” for natural resource projects.

Rashid Sumaila est l’un des chercheurs les plus novateurs au monde dans le domaine de l’avenir des océans, intégrant les sciences sociales, économiques et halieutiques pour créer de nouvelles voies vers une pêche durable. Ses travaux ont remis en question les approches actuelles relatives à la gouvernance marine, en suscitant de nouvelles façons de penser notre relation à la biosphère marine, telles que la protection des hautes mers en tant que « banque de poissons » pour le monde et l’utilisation de « taux d’actualisation intergénérationnels » pour les projets touchant aux ressources naturelles.

Sumner, with an interest and footing in applied ethics remarkable for a philosopher of great theoretical powers, has made outstanding contributions to the characterization and defence of utilitarianism; and also to the analysis and firm delimitation of moral rights. On both subjects, and on the practical question of abortion as well, he has established himself as a leading figure in contemporary philosophical discussion.

Sutton, Mark - Physics - McGill University Mark Sutton uses x-ray diffraction to study the time-dependent behaviour of materials. Using the new synchrotron x-ray sources, he has developed new methods to perform in-situ time-resolved measurements which probe matter on nanometer length scales and with millisecond time resolution. These measurements give unique insight into how such dynamics effects the every-day properties of materials. ------------------ Sutton, Mark - Physics - McGill University Mark Sutton is an internationally renowned experimentalist who uses x-ray diffraction to study the behavior of non-equilibrium condensed matter. Using high intensity x-ray synchrotron radiation, he has developed techniques to perform time-resolved diffraction with millisecond time resolution to study the kinetics of phase transitions. He was also instrumental in developing and applying the important new technique of x-ray fluctuation spectroscopy. This technique exploits the unique properties of the coherent radiation from undulator sources, as well as recent developments in x-ray optics and detector technology to probe the structure of matter down to nanometer length scales and millisecond time resolutions.
