John Dirks Canada Gairdner Global Health Award 2025 ($100,000 prize) Deadline: 1 October, 2024
Applications are open for the John Dirks Canada Gairdner Global Health Award 2025. The John Dirks Canada Gairdner Global Health Award recognizes the world’s leading researchers who have used rational, scientifically based research to improve the wellbeing of those facing health inequalities worldwide. While a single significant scientific discovery would continue to be sufficient evidence to select a nominee, the Award will also recognize outstanding researchers who apply rational scientific approaches to successful implementation, evaluation and policy interventions.
Gairdner invites nominations from any field of research impacting global health and health inequity. The award is intended for research-focused candidates, not those primarily involved in administrative or advocacy roles. This award can be shared by multiple recipients at the discretion of the Foundation.
Award
- Global Health Award winners receive a $100,000 prize (shared if multiple candidates are selected), and an individual award citation and medal. They take part in Gairdner Week events and the annual Awards Gala in late October of each year, presenting and celebrating their awarded work.

Eligible nominee:
- Is an exceptional, research-focused scientific investigator impacting global health and health inequity.
