It is considered Canada's top award for science and engineering.[2][3][4] Eligible facilities include universities, government and private labs. Nominations can be submitted by any Canadian citizen or permanent resident. The winner is chosen by a selection committee representing different scientific disciplines, who make a recommendations to the current NSERC president.[8] The award consists of a gold medal, and the guarantee of at least $1 million to use for research or for establishing research chairs, fellowships or scholarships in the recipients' name.[5] Recipients
Award of ExcellenceFrom 2002 until 2009, three finalists were selected for the Herzberg Medal, and the winner selected from among them. The other two finalists (if it was their first time as a finalist) were awarded NSERC's Award of Excellence.[11] References1. ^{{cite web|title=NSERC - Gerhard Herzberg - About the Award|url=http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Prizes-Prix/Herzberg-Herzberg/About-Apropos_eng.asp|publisher=Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council|accessdate=2011-01-01}} 2. ^1 2 3 {{cite news|title=Finalists for Canada's Top Science Prize Announced|publisher=Canada News Wire|location=Ottawa|date=2004-11-17|page=1}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|title=Ottawa scientist honoured with $1M prize|url=http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2009/03/17/ot-090317-scientist.html|publisher=Canadian Broadcast Corporation|date=2009-03-17|accessdate=2011-01-02}} 4. ^1 {{cite web|title=Dr. Howard Alper Reappointed as Chair of the Science, Technology and Innovation Council|url=http://www.exchangemagazine.com/morningpost/2010/week51/Monday/122002.htm|work=Exchange Magazine|date=2010-12-20|accessdate=2011-01-02}} 5. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=NSERC - Gerhard Herzberg - About the Award|url=http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Prizes-Prix/Herzberg-Herzberg/About-Apropos_eng.asp|publisher=Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council|accessdate=2011-01-02}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Past Winners|url=http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Prizes-Prix/Herzberg-Herzberg/Past-Anciens_eng.asp?Year=1993|publisher=Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council|accessdate=2011-01-02}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Past Winners|url=http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Prizes-Prix/Herzberg-Herzberg/Past-Anciens_eng.asp?Year=1999|publisher=Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council|accessdate=2011-01-02}} 8. ^{{cite web|title=NSERC - Gerhard Herzberg - Call for nominations|url=http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Prizes-Prix/Herzberg-Herzberg/Nomination-Nomination_eng.asp|publisher=Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council|accessdate=2011-01-08}} 9. ^1 {{cite web|title=Past Winners|url=http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Prizes-Prix/Herzberg-Herzberg/Past-Anciens_eng.asp|publisher=Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council|accessdate=2011-01-02}} 10. ^{{cite web|title=Current Winner|url=http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Prizes-Prix/Herzberg-Herzberg/Index-Index_eng.asp|publisher=Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council|accessdate=2016-02-16}} 11. ^{{cite web|title=NSERC - Award of Excellence|url=http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Prizes-Prix/Excellence-Excellence/Index-Index_eng.asp|publisher=Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council|accessdate=2011-01-08}} 2 : Science and technology awards|Awards established in 1993 |
