Award Details

The RSC administers over 20 prestigious awards in recognition of outstanding achievement.

The McLaughlin Medal is awarded for important research of sustained excellence in medical science.

Awarded: Annually

The McLaughlin Medal was established in 1978 by the RSC through the generosity of the R. Samuel McLaughlin Foundation to recognize distinguished achievement in medical sciences in Canada.

The medal is awarded for important research of sustained excellence in any branch of medical sciences. The gold plated silver medal is awarded every year if there is a suitable candidate.

Note that after the March 2025 competition closes, RSC will be moving the deadline for its Medals and Awards to December to align with the membership nomination deadline.
