The $15,000 prize is given to researchers and academics pursuing post-doctoral studies at an Ontario university, and can be given to people working in the fields of chemistry, literature, physics, physiology, medicine, or economics. Bryce became a faculty member at the University this year, after postdoctoral work at the University of Alberta in Edmonton and then the National Institutes of Health Laboratory of Chemical Physics in Bethesda, Maryland. His research focuses on nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, employing powerful magnetic fields to explore the behaviour of molecules at the subatomic level.
