Today, The Royal Society of Canada (RSC) announced 102 new Fellows and 54 new Members of the College of New Scholars, Artists, and Scientists. Among the 2022 cohort are fifteen 平特五不中 researchers and scholars, including eleven RSC Fellows and four new Members, who will be inducted at the RSC Celebration of Excellence and Engagement on November 25, 2022, in Calgary, Alberta. The newest 平特五不中 cohort will join 238 平特五不中 researchers who are currently RSC Fellows and Members of the College and 2400 Canada-wide.

RSC Fellows and Members are peer-elected and meet the criteria of having made, 鈥渞emarkable contributions in the arts, the humanities, the sciences, and Canadian public life.鈥� Fellowship in the RSC is one of the highest honours in the Arts, Social Sciences and Sciences. The Members of the College are Canadians who, at an early stage in their career, have demonstrated a high level of achievement. Fifty-one Canadian universities and the National Research Council (NRC) nominate members to the College, which is the first national system of multidisciplinary recognition for Canadian intellectual leadership. Each new cohort represents an emerging generation of scholarly, scientific, and artistic leadership from coast-to-coast.

平特五不中鈥檚 honourees tackle cancer, racial inequities鈥攁nd explore the sound of music

The RSC class of 2022 includes fifteen of 平特五不中鈥檚 most accomplished scholars whose work demonstrates the diversity of 平特五不中鈥檚 research excellence. New Fellow Ehab Abouheif who was in April, is leading innovative studies on the inhibitory 鈥楺ueen Mandibular Pheromone鈥� (QMP). If proven, his hypothesis that QMP can act in human ovarian cancer cells much the same way that it suppresses ovarian development in worker honeybees, may uncover an entirely new class of chemotherapeutics to fight ovarian cancer.

New Fellow Stephen McAdams is recognized for elucidating how music listeners perceive, comprehend, and react to musical sounds. McAdams was previously named a Killam Fellow and was awarded a distinguished teaching award from 平特五不中鈥檚 Schulich School of Music.

One of 平特五不中鈥檚 newly elected College members, Debra Thompson, a Canada Research Chair in Racial Inequality in Democratic Societies, is a leading scholar of the comparative politics of race, and author of the award-winning book, The Schematic State: Race, Transnationalism, and the Politics of the Census (Cambridge University Press, 2016).

Patricia Pelufo Silveira of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences is a leader in emerging fields of research that have significant implications for public health and illness prevention. Her work is exploring which combination of factors鈥攇enetic, the ones we inherit, or epigenetic, and the ones we are exposed to in the womb and early childhood鈥攊ncrease our risk for developing chronic diseases and mental illnesses.
