Mr. Alain Caillé
Affiliation: Université de Montréal
Keywords: recherche sur les structures de la matière molles, développement des nouvelles technologies issues despercées scientifiques : nanotechnologies, biocarburants, pharmacogénomique
Alain Caillé is a leading theoretician in condensed matter physics who has predicted a number of very different effects in complicated systems on the basis of simple models he has developed. These have ranged from the prediction of a type of long-range order in smectic liquid crystals which was contrary to much of the established wisdom of the time but is now observed experimentally, to the more recent prediction of novel behaviour in lateral diffusion near the melting transition of lipid bilayers. His use of simple models to gain understanding of physical systems is an exceptional talent.
Dr. Peter Caines
Affiliation: McGill University
Keywords: Systems and control theory, stochastic systems, dynamical systems, adaptive systems, optimization and estimation

Peter Caines has made major contributions to control theory, in particular the estimation of the dynamics of systems operating in randomly disturbed environments and adaptive control wherein estimation and feedback control occur simultaneously. The latter work has been officially recognized as among the most important contributions to control theory in the twentieth century. His contributions to the study of complex systems include control based concepts of state aggregation that have led to new methods in optimal control. Dr. Caines is the author of a standard text on stochastic systems.

In 1998, he discovered a molecular marker of chemosensitivity and long survival in this cancer. Testing for loss of chromosomes Ip and 19q is used worldwide to assist in the diagnosis and care of patients with oligodendrogliomas. This finding provided a new framework for basic research and clinical trials in his field. In 2008, he reported that life is prolonged by giving chemotherapy for this disease.

Since coming from Scotland to Canada in 1957 Dr. Glen Caldwell, has made outstanding contributions to the sciences of stratigraphy and paleontology, particularly to those pertaining to the Cretaceous System of the Western Interior of North America. His meticulous and critical approach to geological research and to science in general has earned him respect and admiration among his colleagues in Canada and the United States. His advice on nomenclatorial and editorial policy is much sought after and has led him to active participation in several national and international committees of geological organizations. Dr. Caldwell's reputation as a geologist of note is not only spread through his writings, which are substantial, but also through his many well-trained students. Beyond Dr. Caldwell's extensive geological knowledge lies an admirable administrative ability and wide cultural scope in literature, art, and music.

Her book on "L'Effet fiction. De l'illusion romanesque" is a detailed analysis of the complex relationship between the novelistic text and the strategies of reading it implies. Her books on Michel Butor, on Hélène Cixous, on Claude Ollier, are all innovative works which lead to the methodological renewal of literary studies through a dialectical form of literary criticism. Mireille Calle-Gruber is a world-ranking scholar, an excellent researcher and a very distinguished teacher.
Dr. William Callahan
Affiliation: University of Toronto
Keywords: Catholic church in Spain 1750-1975, social history of 18th-century Spain, poverty and social assistance in early modern Spain, early modern Europe
Dr. William Callahan's pre-eminent work in the field of Spanish history, and in particular of Spanish Church history, spans more than three decades and is remarkable not only for its superb quality but for its prodigious quantity. Historians who master a second language and culture to the degree that Dr. Callahan does, offer to their field a special perceptivity and depth of understanding which is rare and extremely valuable. The fact that much of his work has been translated into Spanish is indicative of the value which his colleagues attach to his careful research and his clear judgements.
Prof. Donald Calne
Affiliation: The University of British Columbia
Keywords: Neurology, movement disorders, Parkinson's disease
Dr. Calne has focused his research on Parkinson's disease and related disorders. He introduced the first synthetic dopamine agonist as treatment, and was the first to observe latent damage in the brain before symptoms of Parkinsonism appear. In 1998 he was appointed an Officer of the Order of Canada, and last year he gained the highest honour bestowed by the Canadian Medical Association, the F.G.N. Starr Gold Medal.
Stephen Calvert
Affiliation: The University of British Columbia
Keywords: Geochemistry, trace elements, stable isotopes, palaeoceanography, carbon burial
Calvert has distinguished himself in the field of marine geochemistry by focussing on diagenesis, the chemical and mineralogical transformation of sediments, a crucial step in global biogeochemical cycles. He has explained the transformation of diatomaceous sediments into chert; his account of the formation of ferromanganese nodules that blanket much of the ocean floor is by now widely accepted. His recent work has focussed on the evolution (possibly into petroleum rocks) of organic-rich sediments under anoxic conditions. Calvert has also been an extraordinarily dynamic and influential proponent of marine sciences in Canada and has brought marine geochemistry into the mainstream of Canadian oceanography.
