Professor, Aotahi School of Māori and Indigenous Studies, University of Canterbury I have published widely in areas relating to the Māori language and languages spoken by Māori - from aspects of linguistic change, particularly in the phrasal lexicon, through to language revitalization. I am a member of the MAONZE (Māori and New Zealand English) project examining change over time in the pronunciation of Māori. I am currently working on a part of speech tagger for Māori as well as Marsden funded projects examining the knowledge non Māori-speaking New Zealanders have of te reo Māori.
Associate professor, Centre Eau Terre Environnement, Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) J'ai obtenu mon doctorat en biologie à l'université du Québec à Montréal en 2010. J'ai par la suite réalisé un premier stage postdoctoral à Uppsala en Suède (2010-2012) et un second à l'université Laval à Québec (2012-2016). Je suis professeur agrégé à l'Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS), Centre Eau-Terre-Environnement à Québec. Je suis un écologiste microbien qui s'intéresse à l'identification des processus qui façonnent les communautés microbiennes. Mes recherches portent sur les aquifères, les lacs, les étangs, les rivières, les sols et les sédiments des régions tempérées, boréales et arctiques et combinent des approches expérimentales et de terrain. Avant de rejoindre l'INRS, j'ai travaillé comme chercheur scientifique à Environnement et Changement Climatique Canada (ECCC) à Burlington, Ontario, où j'ai dirigé le laboratoire de génomique axé sur l'étude des efflorescences d'algues et de cyanobactéries nuisibles dans les Grands Lacs canadiens.
