NSERC awards annual research prizes

Research on chemical theory, medical isotopes and artificial intelligence has been honoured in Canada's Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council’s annual research awards.

The research council’s most prestigious award the Gerhard Herzberg Canada Gold Medal for Science and Engineering was awarded to Axel Becke, a chemist at Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia, for his contributions to computational chemistry.

"As Canadians, we can look with pride and honour today at this group of scientists and engineers who embody world-class talent and innovation. Their search for knowledge through inspired scholarly inquiry will help Canada take its place as a world leader," said NSERC president Mario Pinto.
