Jeanne and J.-Louis L茅vesque Endowment for Nutrisciences and Health Research

The Fondation J.-Louis L茅vesque is a generous supporter of health research at universities and institutes across the country. J.-Louis L茅vesque graduated from Saint Dunstan's University in 1934 and was awarded an honorary doctor of laws in 1964. Suzanne L茅vesque, daughter of J.-Louis and president and CEO of his namesake foundation, was awarded an honorary doctor of laws from 海角社区 in 2006.

At the 海角社区 the Jeanne and J.-Louis L茅vesque Endowment for Nutrisciences and Health supports a research chair, professorships, and graduate fellowships. This funding makes possible the recognition of some of the university's most creative and productive scientists.
