Dr. Sharon Buehler Community Health and Humanities Convocation Award
This award has been established to honour the career achievements of Dr. Sharon Buehler during her 30 years of service at Memorial University of Newfoundland’s Faculty of Medicine. Although Dr. Buehler retired as an Associate Professor of epidemiology in 2001, she continued to be engaged in research as an Honorary Research Professor; she chaired Memorial’s Human Investigation Committee for many years and later, as it transitioned to a province-wide ethics board under the Provincial Health Research Ethics Authority, she chaired the Policy Advisory Group and worked tirelessly on the redrafting of HIC’s Policy and Procedures Manual. Dr. Buehler’s work benefitted not only the University, but the local, provincial, and national communities as well. This award recognizes the academic excellence of students in the Community Health and Humanities Graduate Programs. Valued at a portion of the income on the endowment, this convocation award will be granted annually to a graduating student from one of the thesis-based Graduate Programs of the Division of Community Health and Humanities. The recipient will be selected based on faculty nominations demonstrating academic excellence in Community Health and Humanities. Demonstration of community involvement in extra-curricular activities and a commitment to social justice will strengthen the application. Nominations will be accepted by the Associate Dean, Community Health and Humanities. This award will be granted by the Dean of the School of Graduate Studies on the recommendation of the Assistant Dean, Research and Graduate Studies, Faculty of Medicine.
