Having deconstructed historiographical clichés that had gained currency over the years, Michel Morin has renewed our view of the relationship established between Indigenous and European legal traditions since they first came into contact, including of the sovereignty disputes that ensued, and our ways of analyzing the complex evolution of the law in New France and Quebec following the British conquest. His work brought a new perspective to the study of law in Canada and the Americas, and has had a profound international impact.

Ayant déconstruit des lieux communs historiographiques qui s’étaient cristallisés au fil des ans, Michel Morin a renouvelé les manières d’envisager les rapports qui se sont établis entre traditions juridiques autochtones et européennes au moment de leurs premiers contacts, avec les conflits de souveraineté en découlant, et d’analyser l’évolution complexe du droit de la Nouvelle-France et du Québec à la suite de la conquête britannique. Ces travaux ont rénové l’histoire du droit au Canada et dans les Amériques, en plus d’exercer une profonde influence internationale.

TIM MOSMANN, Professor and Chair, Department of Immunology, University of Alberta, has made significant contributions to our understanding of immune regulation by cytokines, the small secreted proteins of immune cells. He contributed to the discovery and molecular cloning of several cytokines, notably Interleukin 10 which his laboratory discovered as a result of his theoretical predictions. Dr. Mosmann's major contribution was the discovery of subsets of T lymphocyte secreting different patterns of cytokines that mediate the contrasting functions of these T cells in allergy and infectious diseases. This work has had a major impact on current thinking on immune regulation, and many therapeutic and vaccination strategies are being planned using this paradigm.
