Inaugural Harold B. Stewart Memorial Lecture this Friday

Surette holds a Canada Research Chair in the Departments of Medicine and Biochemistry & Biomedical Sciences at McMaster University. He received his PhD from the Department of Biochemistry at Western.

The lecture pays tribute to Harold Stewart, a former Chair of the Department of Biochemistry and Dean of the Faculty of Graduate Studies at Western who passed away in 2009.

The lecture will mark the start of the Research Showcase which will feature 4th Year Honors students presenting posters together with 1st year Graduate students, a total of 50 students this year. In past years, the Research Showcase has engaged students in a way that has strengthened the integration between undergraduate and graduate education missions in the department.
