The Faculty Research Awards recognize the research excellence and scholarly achievements of faculty from across all disciplines, ranging from medicine and applied and natural sciences to arts, social sciences and humanities. Recipients span from early career researchers to senior members of faculty.
Winners were selected by UBC’s Faculty Research Award Committee.
