2004 Research Grants & Awards Recipients

Ms. Angelique Berg
Executive Director, Canadian Orthopaedic Foundation

The Canadian Orthopaedic Foundation is pleased to announce the recipients of its 2004 research grant awards. The research applications are graded and ranked by members of the Executive Committee of the Canadian Orthopaedic Research Society. The Executive Committee of the Foundation then applies the available funding to the top ranked applications. The number of applications funded is dictated by the success of the Foundation's fundraising programmes during the year, the most important of which is Hip Hip Hooray!

Congratulations to the 2004 grant and award winners:

  1. Dr. Laurie Hiemstra is awarded The Alexandra Kirkley Young Investigator Award for her research proposal entitled: "Crossover Nociception and Contralateral Limb Strength Changes after Acute Anterior Cruciate Ligament Surgery."
  2. Dr. Florina Moldovan is awarded the Carroll A. Laurin Award for her research proposal entitled: "Does Endothelin and Metalloproteases Interplay Contribute to Osteosarcoma Malignancy?"
  3. Dr. Peter MacDonald is awarded the Robert B. Salter Award for his research proposal entitled: "Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair with and without arthroscopic acromioplasty in the treatment of full thickness rotator cuff tears."

The prestigious J. Édouard Samson Award, recognizing the excellence in orthopaedic research realized during the year at a Canadian Centre, has been awarded to Dr. John Antoniou for his work on "Advances in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Degenerative Disc Disease."

Congratulations to each of the winners!
