LONG CITATION Izak Benbasat's pioneering research has made very significant and frequently cited contributions to the Management Information Systems (MIS) field regarding the design, evaluation, adoption, and utilization of information technologies at the individual, group, organizational, and industry levels. His papers on the intellectual and epistemological foundations of the MIS field have been highly influential in shaping the discipline, as have his major editorial roles for the leading MIS scholarly journals. Supported by numerous grants from SSHRC and NSERC, and a Canada Research Chair, his research program has helped train many doctoral students, several of whom have become highly respected researchers themselves.

LONG CITATION Ronald de Sousa is one of Canada's leading philosophers, best known for his groundbreaking contributions to the study of emotion. He argues that the emotions are not antagonists of reason, but rather are indispensable for a rational and moral life. His landmark book, The Rationality of Emotion (1987), is required reading for philosophers, neuroscientists, psychologists, and cognitive scientists interested in emotion. De Sousa's recent book, Évolution et Rationalité (2004), builds on his study of emotion by exploring the biological roots of rationality. He has also published over 70 scholarly papers, and his work has been translated into seven languages.

LONG CITATION Chad Gaffield has advanced our understanding of the nineteenth- and twentieth-century history of Canada in three innovative ways: 1) by helping establish childhood and family history as an internationally recognized strength of Canadian research; 2) by enhancing our understanding of the socio-cultura1 history of language and identity as a central feature of the Canadian reality; and 3) by advancing the theory and method of historical research including computer-assisted applications and regional/national/international collaborative initiatives. In 2004 Chad Gaffield was awarded the J.B. Tyrrell Medal of the Royal Society of Canada in recognition of his contributions to Canadian history. SHORT CITATION Chad Gaffield has advanced our understanding of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Canada through his innovative work in areas such as childhood and family history, the history of language and identity, and computer-assisted historical research methodologies.

Tyrrell Medal of the Royal Society of Canada in recognition of his contributions to Canadian history.

LONG CITATION Professor Charles Boone is a yeast molecular geneticist of international stature and a leader among the current generation of rising biomedical researchers in Canada. While his research centres on components of signal-transduction pathways in yeast that affect developmental functions, perhaps his most important contribution has been his most recent. He has developed an automated method of carrying out genome-wide synthetic-lethal tests involving millions of yeast genetic crosses. This method enables a simple determination of genetic, and by inference gene-product, interactions in yeast and is, in principle, applicable to other organisms. It has gained Dr Boone great international recognition, and places him among the most visible genome researchers in the world. SHORT CITATION Professor Charles Boone is a leading yeast molecular geneticist renowned for his pioneering research. Still early in his career, he has made enormous contributions to our understanding of signal transduction and how cells change their shape. He is leading a collaborative network of researchers who are using genomics to determine how genes interact.

LONG CITATION Professor Mark Henkelman is the Canadian pioneer in Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging. He obtained the first MR imager in 1982 and since then has made contributions to MR imaging methods, which are represented in a series of 250 publications and 9 patents. He is recognized worldwide for his understanding of how the biophysical properties of tissues appear in different kinds of MR images. For this work, he was awarded in 1998 the Gold Medal of the International Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, the only Canadian to be so recognized. His research is applied in cancer, white matter diseases and arthritis. In the past two years, Professor Henkelman is adapting MR methods to large-scale mouse imaging for post genomic phenotyping. SHORT CITATION Professor Mark Henkelman is recognized internationally for his important contributions to the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging. He has pioneered the use of this technology in Canada in a wide variety of applications to human diseases. He has recently made innovations in MRI technology for the study of small animal models for human diseases.

Long Citation Canada's leading multi-disciplinary scholar of British Romanticism, Alan Bewell has broken new intellectual ground through his unified approach to knowledge. By making us think about literature in tandem with anthropology, geography, medicine, botany and natural history, Professor Bewell has helped change the face of an entire field of study. His international reputation, recognized by the awarding of major research grants and prizes, appointment to the advisory boards of professional organizations, and invitations to lecture worldwide, rests on three exceptional qualities in his work--originality, breadth, and contemporary relevance.

Long Citation Ronald Beiner ranks among Canada's foremost political philosophers. His many books and articles, in English and in translation, have established his international reputation for incisive analysis of the central concerns of modern political philosophy. A leading advocate for a philosophically robust ideal of shared citizenship and civic membership, his insights on nationalism's effect on citizenship are pathbreaking, while his interpretation of liberalism is as original as it is influential. For any serious student of contemporary political ideas his clear, elegant prose is essential reading. While his audience is international, his writings exhibit a distinctive Canadian sensibility.

Long Citation Abdallah Daar, initially an internationally-acclaimed biomedical scientist and pioneering transplant surgeon, has evolved to become a leading international global health, science policy and bioethics scholar and administrator. His 2005 UNESCO-awarded Avicenna Prize for Ethics in Science recognized his work that "engages in depth with issues at the crossing point of science and ethics, technology and society." His innovative science-policy and biotechnology development program and prodigious research output, with over 100 publications since 2001 alone (and over 300 in total) and over 40 million dollars in research funding, have had a major international impact. He has been central to projects with the United Nations, WHO, UNESCO, OECD and the African Union.
