LONG CITATION Arthur Frank pioneered the study of illness experience in bioethics and medical sociology, creating thereby new specialties in each. His three books -- At the Will of the Body; The Wounded Storyteller: Body, Illness, and Ethics; The Renewal of Generosity: Illness, Medicine, and How to Live -- have won important awards, been widely translated, and number among the most anthologized writings in medical sociology and social medicine. His international recognition includes invited lectures, conference addresses, and visiting professorships across the world. He was invited to participate in two working groups at The Hastings Center, America's preeminent bioethics institute.

The Alouette I satellite, launched in 1962, and still operating in 1972, is an enduring tribute to the engineering skill of Colin Franklin, who led the electrical engineering team on that satellite, and the three which followed it, Alouette II, ISIS-I and ISIS-II. All four satellites have performed much beyond expectations, and have given to Canada an international reputation for satellite design and engineering. Alouette I has operated longer than any other satellite in orbit, and has produced data on the ionosphere on which more than 300 papers have been published, by scientists from 9 countries.

UPDATED, JULY 16, 2015 FRANCOIS, Roger, Department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences, The University of British Columbia Roger François's pioneering research on particle and sediment fluxes in the ocean using stable and radioactive nuclides has provided fresh insights into algal production and nutrient recycling as well as the rates of the ocean's overturning circulation in the past, opening new windows on the evolution of Earth's global carbon system.

UPDATED JULY 16, 2015 La recherche pionnière de Roger François sur les flux de particules et sédiments dans l'océan à l'aide de nucléides stables et radioactifs a fourni de nouvelles perspectives sur la production d'algues et le recyclage des nutriments ainsi que sur la circulation des eaux profondes de l'océan dans le passé, et a ouvert de nouvelles fenêtres sur l'évolution du cycle global du carbone

D. A. S. Fraser graduated from the University of Toronto in 1946 after obtaining Honorable Mention as a member of the winning team in the Putnam Competition of that year. He received his Ph.D. from Princeton in 1949. Since then he has been on the staff at Toronto with terms as visiting professor at Stanford, Princeton, Geneva, Wisconsin and Copenhagen. He has published 120 papers and five books on statistics. These significant contributions to statistical theory have been recognized by election to Fellowships in the Royal Statistical Society, the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, American Association for the Advancement of Science and the American Statistical Association. He was recently offered a professorship at Princeton, which he declined, to the great advantage of Canadian students, thirty-five of whom have taken their Ph.D.s under his direction, with five now in progress. He therefore makes a great contribution to the study of statistics in Canada.

Dr. S. Freedman has had a distinguished career as an investigator. His outstanding contribution has been in the field of tumour immunology, in which, in collaboration with Dr. Phil Gold, a tumour specific embryonic antigen has been shown to be present in patients with tumours of the colon. This work is a milestone in our understanding of the antigenic composition of human tumours and promises to be of immediate diagnostic importance and of long-term importance in the understanding of the immunological forces which operate in limiting and in promoting tumour growth. Dr. Freedman is one of the investigators who have been responsible for the growing world reputation of Canadian Immunology.

John Barry French, Associate Director of the Institute for Aerospace Studies, University of Toronto, early developed a world stature laboratory for research in molecular beams and gas-surface interactions. These facilities were adapted to provide a unique means for calibrating, under flight conditions, the mass spectrometer used for the Project Viking measurements of the Martian atmosphere. Subsequent developments led to invention of a trace atmospheric gas analyzer (Taga) of ultrahigh sensitivity, exploiting a combination of flow fields and electric fields to provide 1000-fold concentration gain. As developed by his company, Sciex - co-winner of the Financial Post et al 1978 Canada Enterprise Award -- the Taga has demonstrated, in government and industry applications, scarcely believable atmospheric 'sniffing' capabilities, e.g., in quantitatively identifying buried toxic chemicals at Love Canal.

Long Citation Vera Frenkel is one of Canada's leading multidisciplinary artists and a new media pioneer, respected both here and abroad. Her installations, videotapes, performances and digital media projects address the forces at work in human migration, the learning and unlearning of cultural memory, and the ever-increasing bureaucratization of experience. Many of her artworks involve collaboration with other artists, both Canadian and international, their narrative contributions woven into projects in both real time and virtual space, exploring where culture and technology meet. Vera Frenkel is among those who have changed the way in which art is practiced in Canada and who have taken art into the larger community to show how our cultural assumptions are constructed. Short Citation Vera Frenkel is one of Canada's leading multidisciplinary artists and a pioneer in the areas of video, media installation and web-based art here and abroad. She is among a small number of artists who have changed the way in which art is practiced in Canada.

Gavin Fridell has conducted pioneering research on fair trade and ethical consumption, exploring the strengths and weaknesses of consumer-driven projects while comparing them to public projects not typically considered “fair trade”—like state-led coffee projects in the South, the Canadian Wheat Board, or liquor control boards. He is a Canada Research Chair in International Development Studies and the author of Coffee (2014), Alternative Trade (2013), and Fair Trade Coffee (2007).

Gavin Fridell a mené des recherches novatrices sur le commerce équitable et la consommation éthique. Ses travaux ont notamment exploré les forces et les faiblesses des projets du secteur privé qui sont axés sur la demande des consommateurs tout en comparant ces derniers à ceux du secteur public- tels que les projets étatiques d’exploitation du café dans les pays en voie de développement, la Commission canadienne du blé ou les régies des alcools- lesquels ne sont généralement pas associés au « commerce équitable ». Il est une Chaire de recherche du Canada en études du développement international et il est l'auteur de Coffee (2014), Alternative Trade (2013), and Fair Trade Coffee (2007).

FRIEDENREICH, Christine – Arnie Charbonneau Cancer Institute, University of Calgary Christine Friedenreich is an internationally-recognized cancer epidemiologist whose pioneering work has demonstrated that physical activity reduces cancer risk and improves rehabilitation and survival after diagnosis. She investigated the etiology and biology of these associations in both observational and experimental studies using innovative methods for physical activity assessment. Her research is being used to develop national and international physical activity guidelines for cancer control aimed at decreasing cancer burden worldwide.

Christine Friedenreich est une épidémiologiste internationale spécialisée dans le cancer dont les travaux ont démontré que l’activité physique réduit le risque de cancer, améliore la réadaptation et la survie après diagnostic. Elle a étudié l’étiologie et la biologie de ces associations dans des études observationnelles et expérimentales en utilisant des méthodes innovantes d’évaluation de l’activité physique. Ses recherches ont conduit à des recommandations nationales et internationales en activité physique pour la prévention des cancers visant à réduire la charge que représente le cancer dans le monde.
