being pursued as analgesic drug candidates. He has published over 400 scientific articles and holds 17 patents. He was elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada
(Academy of Science) and of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). His numerous awards include the Prix Galien of Canada for excellence in
