Message from the President - Recognizing research greatness in Canada

Over the past several months, the government of Canada, through the office of the Governor General, has recognized the exemplary actions of Canadians who have dedicated their lives to making this country a better place by investing them into the Order of Canada. Among those chosen have been several health researchers who have been supported by CIHR during various points of their careers:

Walter Rosser, C.M. - Kingston, Ont.
Shrawan Kumar, O.C. - Edmonton, Alta.
S. Larry Goldenberg, C.M., O.B.C. - Vancouver, B.C.
Carol L. Richards, O.C. - Québec, Que.
Max Cynader, C.M., O.B.C. - West Vancouver, B.C.
Jonathan Lomas, O.C. - Ottawa, Ont.

Please join me in congratulating these individuals. They truly represent excellence in health research and health research promotion.

Alain Beaudet, M.D., Ph.D.
