The McConnell Professor of Practice program, supported by the McConnell Foundation, serves to attract, each year, a recognized professional on the international stage in a domain related to CIRM's six action-research axes.
The invited professor uses their expertise to enrich, by their teaching and participation in the diverse activities offered by CIRM, the university curriculum of students. Moreover, they reinforce the connections between professors, researchers, and members of the community, locally and internationally.
