Dr. Clare Baltazar is recognized for her contributions on the research on Philippine insects. Her discovery of the Philippine-endemic Hymenoptera species is important for biological insect control applications. Dr. Baltazar published a book on Philippine Insects is the first reliable book on Philippine insects. Discoveries of 8 and one subgenus of Hymenoptera and 108 new species of the Philippine parasitic Wasp's are Dr. Baltazar other important contributions to Science. Dr. Baltazar is well renowned here and out of the country. She accepted the Rizal Pro Patria Award in Entomology in 1980.

Dr. Jose Maria Balmaceda is recognized for his significant research contributions to the representation and structure theory of finite groups and related structures. He has applied group theoretic and algebraic methods to investigate association schemes, whose theory serves as a unifying framework for the study of algebraic graphs, codes, designs and finite geometries. His published papers on multiplicity-free representations and characters, self-dual codes, spin models, group association schemes and Terwilliger algebras, as well as his tireless efforts to promote these research areas and mentor students have spurred the development of a core of young dynamic and productive mathematics researchers in the country today. Recognized here and abroad, his leadership in the mathematics community is also manifested in his dedicated involvement in various initiatives to strengthen mathematics education and teacher competencies.
