Paintings donated

 

A reception was held in the Department of Biology to inaugurate the donation of four paintings by Liliane Clement-Ibrahim, an artist and former Concordia graduate, in honour of her husband, Distinguished Professor Emeritus Ragai Ibrahim.

In the photo are, from left to right, Luc Varin, chair of the Biology Department; Martin Singer, Provost & Vice-President Academic Affairs, and Liliane Clement-Ibrahim in front of one of her paintings. They will all be installed in the Renaud Science Complex.

Professor Ibrahim trained nearly 40 graduate students over his career, and last year established a graduate award in biology as “a tribute to the university which adopted me in 1966 and gave me the opportunity to excel in my teaching and research.”
