Sam Epstein is the father of stable-isotope geochemistry. In the early 1950s, he developed the carbonate isotopic paleotemperature scale, a discovery that had a monumental impact on the Earth Sciences. Moreover, his work from this period is the foundation stone on which all future developments in light stable-isotope geochemistry are based. Throughout his career, Sam has shown remarkable scientific insight into the application of stable-isotope geochemistry to an incredible diverse set of problems in Earth and biological sciences, and has continued to make seminal contributions down to the present time.

Professor George T. Ewan is internationally known for his studies of nuclear spectroscopy made at the Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories. His investigations in beta-particle and gamma-ray spectroscopy have made use of high resolution spectrometers, towards the development of which he has contributed greatly. For his development of the germanium (lithium-drifted) detector as a gamma-ray spectrometer he shared the Radiation Industry Award of the American Nuclear Society in 1967. Responding to invitations he has written definitive review articles on Internal Conversion Processes and on Semiconductor Spectrometers. More recently, he has combined his high resolution techniques with charged-particle accelerators to extend his studies of the properties of nuclear states.

A. Murray Fallis, B.A., Ph.D., is concerned chiefly with the taxonomy, life history, and pathological effects of parasites. As Professor of Parasitology at the University of Toronto, he is in charge of the training of both graduate and undergraduate students in parasitology. In both capacities Dr. Fallis has made and is making very significant contributions in this important field of biology. In many scientific publications he has reported the results of his researches on a wide variety of parasitic animals. Among these, his work on blood parasites has been outstanding. Dr. Fallis is now on an expedition in Central America and could not be reached in time for this meeting. I therefore move that he be received in 'absentia'.

Emmanuel Farber has been studying in increasing detail, the biochemical molecular basis for the development of cancer from normal cells with chemicals, including the genesis of cell injury and cell death. He has found that many of the basic cellular pathalogic changes are physiologic, not pathologic and represent types of adaption to injury.

Gerald Farnell is one of the founders of the contemporary scientific and technological field of Surface Acoustic Waves. His research played a key role in establishing a rigorous analytical and computational basis for that subject.
Farnell was the first to show that surface acoustic waves can propagate on all nonisotropic materials and in all directions. This discovery paved the way for a large variety of applications, creating a major field of research and an entire industry. He continued to build on his finding, generating a string of important contributions. Farnell is recognized throughout the world as one of the area's preeminent researchers.
