We are pleased to share that Dr. Michael Moran has been awarded the King Charles III Coronation Medal, recognizing his outstanding leadership in cancer research governance and his longstanding commitment to advancing health research in Canada.
Introduced on May 6, 2023, the Coronation Medal marks the ascension of King Charles III and honours individuals whose service has significantly contributed to Canadian society across public service, education, science, and the arts. Recipients are nominated by national partner organizations and selected for their dedication to both their communities and the broader public good.
Dr. Moran was nominated by the Canadian Cancer Society in recognition of his years of service and his leadership of the Advisory Council on Research. His contributions have helped shape national research priorities and strengthened the impact of science on patient care.
The medal presentation will take place in Toronto on June 19, 2025, during a special ceremony hosted by the Canadian Cancer Society’s Executive team and Board of Directors.
We congratulate Dr. Moran on this national recognition and thank him for his continued dedication to excellence in research leadership.
