The faculty of medicine’s Dr. Steven Miller and Dr. Fabio Rossi are among 102 new Fellows elected to the Royal Society of Canada (RSC) in recognition of their outstanding scholarly and scientific achievement.
The fellowship of the RSC comprises over 2,500 Canadian scholars, artists, and scientists, peer-elected as the best in their field. These are distinguished individuals from all branches of learning who have made remarkable contributions in the arts, the humanities and the sciences, as well as in Canadian public life.
“The Royal Society of Canada is delighted to welcome this outstanding cohort of artists, scholars and scientists. These individuals are recognised for their exceptional contributions to their respective disciplines and are a real credit to Canada,” says RSC President Jeremy McNeil.
A total of 13 UBC faculty members were announced by the RSC as new Fellows and as new Members of the College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists. The 2022 Fellows and Members will be welcomed into the RSC in November at the RSC Celebration of Excellence and Engagement. Read the full RSC announcement.
