Celebrating excellence
In 2001, the DMRF hosted the first ever Community of Scholars gala awards dinner. The event has since become an annual celebration of excellence in research, medical education, clinical care and professional (staff) performance – an opportunity to publicly and collectively acknowledge, reward and encourage the outstanding accomplishments of Dalhousie Medical School’s faculty and staff. The Medical School supports the education, clinical and staff awards while DMRF supports the Awards of Excellence in Medical Research, outlined below.

Awards of Excellence in the amount of $7,000 are given to junior researchers for exemplary work in basic medical research, clinical medical research, and research in any one of six areas: health law, bioethics, medical informatics, population health, medical education or medical humanities. They are given to junior researchers to support research excellence into the future.
