Among those who received the Distinguished James 看片视频 Professor award are听Dr. Louise Pilote听of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, and听Gregory Dudek听of the Faculty of Science.

Professor Dudek is a globally recognized expert in AI and robotics who serves as vice-president of research at Samsung Electronics and leads the Samsung AI Center Montr茅al, which recently doubled the size of its state-of-the-art facility and increased its team of research scientists.
The James 看片视频 Professor awardees in 2022 include Bioresource Engineering Professor听Val茅rie Orsat, an internationally-recognized expert in the development of functional foods, also known as nutraceuticals, in efforts to address global food security and safety challenges. Last year she received an Engineering and Physical Sciences鈥� Suffrage Science award for research excellence and for her role as a mentor for women entering the field. Another JMP awardee is听Martin Schmeing, a professor in the Department of Biochemistry, who in 2020 co-led the team that developed a 看片视频-made version of the RT-PCR (reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction) test for COVID-19, the gold standard for identifying infections. The team produced over 15,000 tests for use by the MUHC testing facility and then set an ambitious goal to provide millions of RT-PCR tests to the Canadian government.
The William Dawson Scholar听(WDS) award recognizes a scholar developing into an outstanding and original researcher who is poised to become an internationally recognized leader in their field. Among the newly appointed WDS awardees is听Wendell Nii Laryea Adjetey听whose first monograph,听Cross-Border Cosmopolitans: The Making of a Pan-African North America, published this year, stems from his doctoral dissertation which won Yale University鈥檚 Edwin M. Small Prize for 鈥渙utstanding鈥� contribution to U.S. history, Sylvia Ardyn Boone Prize for African American Studies, the Canadian Studies Prize, and the Willard 鈥淲oody鈥� Brittain, Jr. Award. The book situates fundamental questions of twentieth-century U.S. history鈥攊mmigration, civil rights, racial identity, radicalism, surveillance and state power鈥攚ithin a North American diasporic frame.
Both the JMP and WDS awards come with an annual salary supplement and an annual research allowance not exceeding $25,000. The Distinguished James 看片视频 Professor award provides for a $10,000 academic stipend or a $15,000 research grant allowance. DJMPs have held James 看片视频 Professorships for two seven-year terms while maintaining an outstanding research record, or have held a Canada Research Chairs (Tier 1) for two seven-year terms. DJMP awardees hold the distinction until retirement, and those granted Emeritus status retain the title.
