Long Citation Dr. Marra has made significant contributions to genome science and health research. One major contribution was the construction of a human genome map. This key resource allowed an International Consortium to efficiently complete and make publicly available the human genome sequence. Dr. Marra's mapping approach has been used to analyze more than 30 genomes from organisms of major importance to research. Another major contribution was in sequencing the SARS coronavirus genome. The speed of the sequencing and the availability of the sequence made international headlines, and emphasized the central role that genome science could play in combating emerging infectious diseases.

M. Jean-CIaude Marsan a eu une formation universitaire tant en architecture qu'en urbanisme : il obtint son Ph.D. en urbanisme de l'University of Edimburg en 1975. Professeur à la Faculté de l'aménagement de l'Université de Montréal, il fut directeur de l'Ecole d'architecture de 1975 à 1979 et doyen de la Faculté de 1985 à 1993. Homme engagé, M. Marsan verra son nom lié au développement de l'architecture et de l'urbanisme à Montréal. En plus d'une oeuvre universitaire imposante, M. Marsan a toujours tenu à former et à informer la population via les media sur les conséquences des orientations prises par les édiles, en particulier via des chroniques régulières dans « Le Devoir » et des cours à la télévision.

The tenuous job market of the 1990s, with sessional positions in five provinces, encouraged Toph Marshall to develop his practice-based research in the field of Greek and Roman theatre, focusing on stagecraft and how plays create meaning for an audience. With books on Aeschylus, Euripides, Aristophanes, and Roman comedy, he is now a leading scholar of ancient performance traditions. Other research has pioneered the study of classical reception in television and comic books.

Le marché du travail précaire des années 1990, avec des emplois dans cinq provinces, a aidé Toph Marshall à developer sa recherche pratique dans le domaine du théâtre grec et romain. Il se concentre sur la mise en scène et comment les pieces créent du sens pour les spectaeurs. Avec des livres sur Eschyle, Euripide, Aristophanes, et la comédie Latin, il est un spécialiste de l’étude des anciennes traditions du spectacle. D’autres recherches ont ouvert la voie à l’étude de l’influence classique sur la television et les bandes dessinées.

Randall Martin’s research applies satellite observations, global models, and in situ measurements of the atmosphere to provide quantitative information about how natural and anthropogenic processes affect climate, biogeochemical cycling, air quality, and in turn, human health. Particular attention is paid to atmospheric processes and emissions affecting tropospheric ozone and aerosols. His contributions have been recognized by a succession of national and international awards, including NSERC’s E.W.R. Steacie Fellowship.

Les recherches de Randall Martin combinent des observations par satellite, modèles globaux et mesures in situ de l’atmosphère pour fournir des informations quantitatives sur la manière dont les processus naturels et anthropogeniques affectent le climat, les cycles biogéochimiques, la qualité de l’air, et par conséquent, la santé des populations humaines. Ses travaux ont été reconnus par plusieurs prix nationaux et internationaux, y compris la Bourse E.W.R. Steacie du CRSNG.

Jonathan Martin is a highly cited international leader in environmental analytical chemistry. His discoveries of new organic contaminants, how they move through the environment and into organisms, and how these affect our health have impacted the way that chemicals are regulated in Canada and internationally. His expertise is applied through service to federal science committees and international scientific panels, and his mentoring has already produced a new generation of leaders.

Jonathan Martin est un leader international très cité dans la chimie analytique environnementale. Ses découvertes de nouveaux contaminants organiques, comment ils se déplacent à travers l’environnement et dans les organismes, et comment ils affectent notre santé ont influé sur la façon dont les produits chimiques sont réglementés au Canada et à l’étranger. Son expertise est appliquée par le service aux comités scientifiques fédéraux et des groupes scientifiques internationaux, et son mentorat a déjà produit une nouvelle génération de dirigeants.

Long Citation Peter G. Martin is one of Canada's most distinguished astrophysical leaders and mentors. He is universally recognized as a major world figure in studies of the physics and chemistry of the interstellar medium. He has made fundamental contributions to our understanding of cosmic dust, interstellar light propagation, and the complex Galactic ecosystem in which stars are born and die. He led a massive theoretical effort to compute essential and widely-used hydrogen molecule reaction rates for star and planet formation. He plays a defining role in many major ISM observing campaigns, including the unique Canadian survey of the Galactic plane. Short Citation Peter G.

Long Citation (for publication and press release) Dr. Renée Martin is a human geneticist who has pioneered research into the causes of chromosomal abnormalities in human sperm. These abnormalities are responsible for infertility, pregnancy loss, and the birth of children with mental and physical handicaps. Dr. Martin has developed sophisticated new techniques to compare sperm chromosomes from healthy men and men with an increased risk of chromosome abnormalities due to factors such as infertility and exposure to radiotherapy, chemotherapy and pesticides. This innovative research program has allowed her to identify some significant causes of chromosome abnormalities in humans, which have led to changes in patient counselling.
