Page 1 Dr. ALAN WILDEMAN President and Vice-Chancellor University of Windsor Dr. Alan Wildeman is the sixth President and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Windsor. Dr. Wildeman grew up in Lanigan, Saskatchewan, where his family farmed. He attended the University of Saskatchewan, graduating in 1975 with a Bachelor of Science degree and again in 1977 with a Master of Science degree, both in biology. He moved to Ontario and completed his PhD degree in genetics at the University of Guelph in 1982. He was awarded a NATO fellowship for postdoctoral work in Strasbourg, France, where he was widely cited for his work on how genes are controlled. In 1985 he returned to Canada to take up a faculty position in genetics at the University of Guelph, and in 1987 was awarded an Industrial Research Chair in Biotechnology. In 1993 returning to Europe for a year, he worked at the Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich where his work focused on the mechanisms whereby tumour-causing viruses become activated. Throughout his career he served as a member of many grant review panels for the Medical Research Council of Canada and the Canadian Institutes for Health Research, and for three years served as chair of the scientific review committee on virology and cancer for the National Cancer Institute of Canada. In 2001 he was appointed Vice-President (Research) at the University of Guelph, a role he held until joining the University of Windsor as President and Vice-Chancellor in July, 2008. As Vice-President (Research) he served on the advisory boards of many provincial and national research organizations, and in 2007 as a Director on the Board of BIOTECanada. In 2005 he served as chair of the Ontario Council on University Research. Throughout his career, Dr. Wildeman has been very engaged in undergraduate and graduate teaching. He has served on review bodies for the Ontario Council on Graduate Studies, and reviewed academic and research programs for a number of universities. He has long recognized the importance of the relationship between universities and cities, and served for six years on the Guelph Economic Development Advisory Council. In 2007 he organized a national roundtable on how cities and universities can better align their efforts to address environmental challenges. He is been a strong advocate for how all disciplines, including the sciences, arts and humanities, have vitally important roles to play in enriching lives and addressing society’s challenges. Dr. Wildeman is married to Debra Henderson, who has had a distinguished career in film training and education and is now working on her doctorate degree in English, with a focus on Canadian Cultural Policy.

O CANADA!

O Canada! Our home and native land!

True patriot love in all thy sons command.

With glowing hearts we see thee rise,

The True North strong and free!

From far and wide, O Canada,

We stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land glorious and free!

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

Ô Canada! Terre de nos aïeux.

Ton front est ceint de fleurons glorieux.

Car ton bras sait porter l’épée,

Il sait porter la croix.

Ton histoire est une épopée,

Des plus brilliants exploits.

Et ta valeur, de foi trempée,

Protégera nos foyers et nos droits,

Protégera nos foyers et nos droits.
