Recipient: Dr. Paul Grand’Maison, Université de Sherbrooke
“Physician by education. Family physician by profession. Teacher by vocation. Medical
educator by passion. Administrator by evolution.” A Sherbrooke graduate (1973), Paul
Grand’Maison has been a full-time professor at Université de Sherbrooke since 1976 where
he has filled numerous leadership positions: Director of the Office of Medical Education,
Director of Department of Family Medicine, Vice-Dean for Undergraduate Medical
Education (2002-2011), Director of the WHO Collaborating Center (since 2001), and
Director of the Office of International Relations (since April 2012).
His professional motto is: “Daring in vision, wisdom in decision, determination in action,
rigor in evaluation, and scholarship in dissemination.” He has been at the forefront of many
innovations: the development of family medicine, curriculum renewal, problem-based
learning, faculty development, community-oriented education, OSCE (including its early use
in the 1990’s for the attribution of practice license), fully distributed medical education,
and social accountability. His scholarly career includes research and educational grants, 75
publications, 220 presentations (more than 80 as an invited speaker), and 100 workshops in medical education. He
is a fellow of the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences (2005).
He played an active role at numerous organizations: College of Family Physicians of Canada, Canadian Association
for Medical Education (a founding member and president 2000 – 2002), Medical Council of Canada, Association of
Faculties of Medicine of Canada, Network Towards Unity for Health, World Health Organization, and Conférence
internationale des doyens de médecine d’expression française.
He received the AFMC-Astra Zeneca Award for faculty development (2002), the CAME- Ian Hart Award (2008), the
Grand Prix du Collège des Médecins du Québec (2010) and the Ian R. McWhinney Award from the College of
Family Physicians of Canada (2010).
A passionate and principled collaborator and leader who is concerned for others, he commits to a more personal
motto: “Our dreams help others dream. Our engagements and actions bring others to do similarly. Dreams, actions,
and engagement make us craftsmen of the beauty of the world.”
