Martin
Gauthier received a B.Sc. in biology from the University
of Quebec at Montreal (UQAM) in 1997. During his studies
he participated in several information campaigns
orchestrated by the non-profit organization Société
pour Vaincre la Pollution, which raised awareness
amongst fishermen about the level of toxins in the St.
Lawrence river. He helped in the production of brochures
and maps showing the areas with the highest levels of
toxins and their accumulation in different species of
fish. He became particularly interested in plants while
working on a reforestation project in the Saguenay/Lac :
region. In April 1998 he joined the fruit research team
at the St-Jean-sur-Richelieu station of Agriculture and
Agri- Food Canada. He worked on the evaluation of new
apple and rootstock selections and on the scanning
electron microscopy of pollen from several fruit species.
