Long Citation Peter Hackett made major contributions while at NRC in chemical physics that led to improved synthesis of vitamin D and isotopic enrichment via infrared multiphoton dissociation. He developed methods now widely used to study reactions at metal centers and was among the first to delineate potential revolutionary chemical properties of nanoscale metal clusters. He was pivotal in establishing the National Institute for Nanotechnology, a ground-breaking university-government collaboration. His vision and leadership has positioned Canada at the forefront of emerging fields such as nanotechnology, photonics, genomics and information technologies, and challenged Canadians to work together to develop technologies to raise the standards of living in developing countries.

Although by inclination and interest primarily a theoretical physicist, Professor Haering also does excellent experimental work and his papers are characterized by a lively interplay between theory and experiment. He is best known for his work on the Zeeman effect in Germanium. ultrasonics in metals and his prediction of the existence of a Doppler-shifted cyclotron resonance in metals which was later detected by Kirsch and Redfield. At Simon Fraser University, his energy, enthusiasm and ability to stimulate others has enabled him, in a few years, to develop one of the strongest solid state physics groups in Canada.

Although the author of five books, the themes that best distinguish the work of Professor Hagan are reflected in two editions of "The Disreputable Pleasures: Crime and Deviance in Canada" (1977, 1984), one of the most widely read books in this field in Canada, in "Modern Criminology: Crime, Criminal Behavior and its Control" (1985) and in articles which have appeared in leading journals in Canada, the United States and Britain. The work is highly original and extensively cited for the ways in which it brings the concepts of power and social structure to the study of social control, including crime control and the causes of criminal and delinquent behavior. His work is internationally recognized, as reflected by election to the prestigious international membership (200 members worldwide) of the Sociological Research Association, and appointment as the youngest and as only the third Canadian based Fellow of the American Society of Criminology.

Benjamin Haibe-Kains is an international leader in Bioinformatics—the development of computational methods based on statistics and machine learning to analyze large, complex biomedical data. His work is improving the prediction of disease progression and therapy response, cornerstones of precision medicine. He is a champion of transparent and reproducible research, exploring how cloud computing and software virtualization can improve the way data, analytical tools and findings are disseminated.

Son travail vise à améliorer la prédiction de la progression des cancers et de leurs réponses aux traitements. Il explore comment les nouvelles technologies d’informatique nuagique et virtuelle peuvent améliorer la transparence et la reproductibilité de la recherche biomédicale.

Jess Haines’s research bridges epidemiologic research on the determinants of child health behaviour with effective and scalable family-based health promotion interventions. She prioritizes an integrated knowledge translation (iKT) approach that engages key knowledge users in the research process and works to mobilize results to effect real, lasting change to benefit the health of children and families.

Jess Haines fait le pont entre la recherche épidémiologique sur les déterminants du comportement des enfants en matière de santé avec des interventions de promotion de la santé efficaces et réalistes pour les familles. Elle privilégie une approche intégrée de transfert de connaissances en impliquant les principaux utilisateurs de connaissances dans tout le processus de recherche. Elle dissémine les résultats afin d’apporter des changements qui perdurent et dont les enfants et les familles peuvent réellement bénéficier.

Dr. B.K. Hall is a developmental biologist who has studied how skeletal development is controlled. His highly original work has demonstrated that cells of craniofacial bones can form both cartilage and bone. To form cartilage, cells must be exposed to mechanical forces associated with embryonic movement. Bone formation is initiated by products of the embryonic epithelial basal laminae acting inductively on embryonic mesenchyme. Development is under epigenetic control and epigenetic factors have been important in the evolution of vertebrates.

Dennis Hall, University Professor and Canada Research Chair, is an organic chemist recognized as a world leader in the chemistry and chemical biology of the element boron. His research work is centered on the study of the properties and the reactivity of organoboronic acids, and their multiple applications in catalysis and drug discovery. His efforts led to the discovery of new and greener reaction processes, and to new classes of organoboron compounds that are currently exploited as pharmaceutical agents.

Ses travaux de recherche sont centrés sur les propriétés et la reactivité des acides organoboroniques et de leur multiples applications en catalyse et en chimie médicinale. Ses efforts ont mené à la découverte de nouvelles réactions chimiques plus vertes et efficaces, et à de nouvelles classes de composés organoborés qui sont exploités comme agents pharmaceutiques.

Long Citation Dr. Halloran is an international leader and pioneer in organ transplantation. His seminal contributions include: delineating the role of interferon-y in injury and rejection and. its effect on MHC l and II; describing mechanisms of T cell mediated and antibody mediated rejection; describing the effects of somatic cell senescence on transplant performance; and developing diagnostic systems for transplantation. Recently, he has annotated the transcriptome of rejecting kidney to significantly advance a mechanistic understanding of allograft rejection. Dr. Halloran has significantly advanced clinical transplant medicine through the study and optimization of immunosuppressive therapy resulting in improved outcomes for transplant patients worldwide. Dr. Halloran is founding Editor of the American Journal of Transplantation, the leading journal in transplantation, and was recently named an Officer of the Order of Canada.

Dr. Mitchell Halperin is internationally renowned for his expertise in and contributions to the clinical diagnosis and treatment of electrolyte and acid-base disorders. Through his creative endeavours he has changed our understanding of how the kidney regulates body metabolism. His contributions to education are widely acknowledged. Perhaps most striking is the fact that virtually every medical school in Canada, and many elsewhere in the world, are staffed by academic nephrologists whom he trained.

Professor Galen Pippa Halverson is a stratigrapher, sedimentologist, and isotope geochemist who interrogates the sedimentary and stratigraphic record to infer geographic, tectonic, and environmental information about the ancient Earth. He is among the world’s foremost expert on the era of Earth history between 1.7 and 0.6 billion years ago, an era that encompassed the assembly and disintegration of the supercontinent Rodinia and early diversification of eukaryotic organisms.

Edith Hamel is internationally recognized for her pioneering work on the regulation of brain perfusion under normal and pathological conditions. Her findings provided unprecedented information on the cellular basis of brain imaging techniques that use hemodynamic signals to map changes in neuronal activity. Her discoveries also unraveled the mechanisms of action of specific antimigraine drugs, and of cardiovascular therapies with memory benefits in models of Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia.
