In the 1980s, Quebec-born scientist Dr. J. R. Jocelyn Paré (1959–2022) developed a powerful method for extracting compounds and chemicals in various laboratory contexts. This spawned an entire field called MAP (Microwave Assisted Processes). MAPs are used in life sciences, geology, and many industries. They have become quite useful in environmental sciences and applications due to their ability to study and extract contaminants. Paré obtained his B.Sc. from McGill University (1980) and a Ph.D. from Carleton University (1984). He spent most of his career as a scientist in the Canadian federal government. Dans les années 1980, le scientifique Québécois Dr. J.R Jocelyn Paré (1959-2022) a developpé une méthode puissante pour extraire des composés chimiques dans différents contextes de laboratoires. Ceci a débuté un nouveau champ d'études nommé "procédé assisté par micro-ondes" (MAPmd). Les MAPmd sont utilisés dans la science de la vie, la géologie et plusieurs autres industries. Ils sont devenues utiles dans les sciences environnementales grâce à son habileté d'étudier et d'extraire des contaminants. Paré a obtenu son B.SC. de l'Université McGill en 1980 et son doctorat de l'Université Carleton en 1984. Il a passé la majorité de sa carrière en tant que scientifique au niveau du gouvernement fédéral du Canada. - Function
