Long Citation
A leading scholar of public administration and the political process, Peter Aucoin has helped to interpret and to shape the great changes that have occurred in public-sector management and the Canadian electoral regime in the last two decades. He is recognized here and abroad for his penetrating analyses of governance issues and electoral policy. Equally, he is distinguished for the practice of his profession in service to government, in which he has demonstrated intellectual leadership on subjects like Senate reform, campaign-finance regulation and accountability in government. He is the Eric Dennis Memorial Professor of Government and Political Science and Professor of Public Administration at Dalhousie University.

Professor Aust is recognized world-wide as Canada's most distinguished scientist in the field of grain boundary engineering. His pioneering work was high level "Surface Science" decades before this subject became fashionable. It has led to important technical applications in metals and ceramics. His seminal work during the fifties and sixties including experimental and theoretical studies clearly defined structure-property relationships for grain boundaries in engineering materials. Professor Aust's contributions including excellence in published research and scholarly achievements, and his extensive international involvements have had an exceptional impact within universities and industry both within Canada and abroad.
Dr. Arthur Axelrad

Dr. Axelrad has achieved international scientific recognition primarily for his work on normal and abnormal blood-cell formation. He has carried out pioneering work on the use of cell culture methodology to study the properties of cells at early stages in the differentiation pathway leading to red cell production, and is a recognized authority on viral leukemogenesis in the mouse. He has made lasting contributions in both areas.
Dr. Axelrad's work has been characterized by a productive combination of an enthusiasm for new ideas, together with an insistence on careful experimental work.

Professor W.A. Ayer has made outstanding contributions to the progress of natural products chemistry in both the terpenoid and alkaloid fields. Among his many achievements, particularly significant are the isolation and structure determination of a novel type of diterpenoid (the cyathins) and many outstanding contributions to Lycopodium alkaloid chemistry. The total synthesis of lycopodine has received considerable acclaim and a highly original synthesis of grandisol has also been achieved. The structural studies have led to important advances in physical methods such as the discovery of the antioctant behaviour of positive nitrogen and the first recognition of the y-antiperiplanar deshielding effect in 13C.m.r. The work has thus had a far-reaching impact on several areas of organic chemistry.

Dr. Morrel Bachynski
Affiliation: MPB Technologies Inc.
Keywords: Optical fiber telecommunications, fiber lasers
Deceased Date: 2012-03-21

After a brilliant record as a student at the University of Saskatchewan and McGill University, Bachynski joined the research laboratories of the RCA Victor Company, Montreal. His research has been primarily with microwave propagation, more recently in plasma environments. A total of 26 publications over a period of eight years is ample evidence of his ability as a researcher. He is co-author of a book on plasma and the electomagnetic field. His abilities have been recognized in various ways - appointment as Assistant Director of his laboratory, membership on national committees having to do with radio preparation and gas dynamics, and lecturer to graduate classes at McGill University.

Professor Richard Bader is distinguished for his original and innovative research on electron density distributions in molecules. The results of his theoretical calculations yield new understanding of chemical bonding and valence in molecules, thus stimulating renewed research efforts by others. He is also a superb teacher and he has the knack of lecturing and writing on complex scientific concepts with impressive clarity.

David McCurdy Baird has combined the practice of geology as Provincial Geologist of Newfoundland, with teaching the science, first at the University of New Brunswick and latterly as Chairman of the Department of Geology at Memorial College. Although much of his work has been concerned with the geology of specific areas, most of his reports contain significant contributions to the science as a whole. In this day of specialization, he is a welcome exemplar of those increasingly rare geologists whose fundmental conclusions are based primarily on their own field work. He writes with equal lucidity for the professional geologist and for the general public.
