At the Full Faculty meeting held on May 19, 2011, three of our faculty members were recognized with awards.

Dr. Anne Marie Whelan of the College of Pharmacy was presented with the Teaching Excellence Award.  This annual award recognizes the critical role that teaching plays in the Faculty of Health Professions and honours an outstanding teacher who embodies the finest aspects of exemplary teaching.

This year, two awards were established in recognition of outstanding research leading to significant progress in the understanding and/or management of a health related problem.  The Research Excellence Award was open to all faculty members and the Junior Research Award was open to faculty members within ten years of their initial appointment.  Dr. Lois Jackson, Acting Director of the AHPRC and Professor in the School of Health and Human Performance received the Research Excellence Award and Dr. David Jakeman, College of Pharmacy, was given the Junior Research Award.

Congratulations to all of our award winners!
