According to the meticulous research conducted by our collegue Jacques Brisson, the IRBV has turned 100 today, 24 August!

This was revealed through the discovery of an archived letter confirming the hiring of Marie-Victorin as a professor of Botany at the Université de Montréal.

Unfortunately, the pandemic has forced us to postpone the celebrations to a later date.

Happy 100th anniversary to our institute!
