We are pleased to learn that two members of the Department have been selected this year as recipients of Dean’s Outstanding Staff awards.

University of Toronto physicist Pierre Savard has been named Radio-Canada’s 2012 Scientist of the Year for his remarkable contribution, along with other Canadian scientists on the ATLAS experiment team, to the discovery of the Higgs boson particle in July of 2012.

The School of the Environment was established in July 2012 to leverage the enormous breadth and depth of environmental teaching and research expertise within the Faculty of Arts & Science.

On July 4th, scientists are expected to announce the existence of the Higgs boson, after years of research at the $10-billion Large Hadron Collider at the European Organization for Nuclear Research.

Ten University of Toronto researchers have been elected Fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the world’s largest science society and publisher of the prestigious journal, Science.
