News Release
NEWS RELEASE: June 14, 2005 Health care leaders create Canada’s first national health advisory body The Canadian Academy of Health Sciences will give Government and the public comprehensive expertise and advice on health issues EDMONTON - When the President of the United States wants advice on a public health issue, he calls the United States’ National Academies. When the Prime Minister of Great Britain wants to seek similar counsel, he usually turns to the Royal Society of Britain. But when the Prime Minister of Canada wants similar advice, who does he call? Well, that’s not always entirely clear, given the more narrowly defined mandates of many Canadian organizations. Now, however, owing to a recent initiative by a group of leading health care leaders and researchers, the Prime Minister will be able to call the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences (CAHS), recently created to: • Develop informed, strategic assessments on urgent health issues; • Inform public policy on these issues; • Enhance Canada’s readiness to deal with global health issues; and, • Provide a recognized and authoritative Canadian health science voice internationally. According to one of the Academy’s key organizers, the establishment of the Academy is long over due—and all the more pressing given the potential global health threats to Canadians, most recently exemplified by the SARS threat. “Ask Canadians what they care about most, and they answer unequivocally: ‘health,’” explains University of Alberta Professor of Medicine Paul Armstrong, CAHS’s first president. “It makes sense, therefore, that Canada should have an organization that government—and Canadians—can turn to for sound, impartial advice and research on pressing health issues.” The organization will also have an international role to play, representing Canada’s interests abroad and working closely with other nations’ parallel agencies. -
The Committee
2016-2017 Annual Report Faculty of Medicine Honours and Awards Committee Table of Contents 2 3 Committee 4 Background and Analysis 5 Faculty Laureates Committee 3 The Faculty of Medicine’s Honours and Awards Committee was struck in July 2010 to advise the Dean and Faculty on matters related to Honours and Awards. It meets several times each year to discuss ongoing and upcoming awards opportunities and overall policies and is comprised of faculty members chosen for their expertise in mentorship and leadership. The Committee is meant to enhance the existing nomination process for faculty rather than replace it, and operates in conjunction with departmental committees and the University Prizes and Awards Committee (UPAC). In general, the Honours and Awards Committee does not veto nominations and faculty members are free to nominate at their own discretion. An exception occurs when there are restrictions included in the prize guidelines regarding the number of nominations allowed per institution or faculty. While it is not necessary to involve the Committee with every nomination, it is useful to make the Committee aware of nominations or even the intention to nominate within the Faculty, particularly with regards to high-profile awards, as our office can often provide guidance and support. A list of awards the Committee regularly works with can be found here. Exclusions It should be noted that, with some exceptions, the recognition opportunities considered by the Honours and Awards Committee exclude: Investigator awards or career awards tied to grant submissions Fellowships that provide emancipation from university responsibilities Education or leadership awards Self-nominations Awards for students or postdoctoral fellows The selection of endowed chairs Administrative/support staff-specific awards Committee Members, 2016–2017 Abraham Fuks, Chair Philip E. -

It is also an induction into the Gairdner family of exceptional biomedical scientists. The 50th anniversary celebration was a joyous family reunion." Gairdner (1981) and Nobel Laureate, Michael Brown, Southwestern University, Dallas 3 THE GAIRDNER FOUNDATION CORPORATE PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY HISTORY The Gairdner Foundation was created in 1957 by James Arthur Gairdner to recognize and reward the achievements of medical researchers whose work contributes significantly to improving the quality of human life. Since the first awards were made in 1959, the Gairdner Awards have become Canada's foremost international award. The Canada Gairdner International Awards are one of the three most prestigious awards in medical science, along with the Swedish Nobel Prize in Medicine and the American Albert Lasker Medical Research Awards. They hold up the pinnacle of achievement as a mirror to Canadians, and in so doing, play a role in helping Canada achieve its goals of excellence. The Gairdner was incorporated in December 1957 as a charitable corporation under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. Its funds originally derived from the personal gifts of the founder and members of his family.
