This award is offered annually.
The award recognizes exceptional Canadian scientists with a record of outstanding achievement in molecular biosciences research who have also demonstrated exceptional teaching, leadership and/or contributions to the broader community.
(1) Evaluation criteria
Nominees will have evidence of (i) a strong record of research with significant contributions in the field(s) of genetics, biochemistry and/or cell biology. In addition, (ii) nominees must demonstrate their commitment to science leadership in the broader community, such as, but not limited to, exceptional commitment to teaching/mentorship, advocacy work, science communication and outreach. Canadian Society for Molecular Biosciences (CSMB) acknowledges that the best research comes from a richly diverse community and therefore encourages applications from women and members of under-represented groups.
