The Canadian Mathematical Society (CMS) is currently accepting nominations for the 2026 CMS Blair Spearman Doctoral Prize.

Deadline: January 31, 2026. No nominations will be accepted beyond this deadline. The prize is awarded to one recipient of a Ph.D. from a Canadian university whose overall performance in graduate school is judged to be the most outstanding. Although the dissertation will be the most important criterion (the impact of the results, the creativity of the work, the quality of exposition, etc.) it will not be the only one. Other publications, activities in support of students and other accomplishments will also be considered.
