The Pointe-à-Callière Foundation’s 2019 Major Donors Evening will highlight Richard Béliveau’s important contributions as a researcher, collector, and philanthropist.

A Doctor of Biochemistry and the Scientific Director of the Chair in Cancer Prevention and Treatment at the Université du Québec à Montréal, Richard Béliveau is the author of over 240 articles published in medical journals around the world. He is also deeply passionate about Japanese civilization.
