Biography and achievements
France Martineau was the director of the project Modéliser le changement : les voies du français, from 2005 to 2010, funded by the Major Collaborative Research Initiatives (MCRI) of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC).[4] This project, initiated by Dr Martineau, has been involved with the development of digitized corpora[5] that have supported numerous research activities[6] and conferences[7] worldwide in the field of French historical sociolinguistics.
Professor Martineau is one of very few researchers to obtain a second MCRI grant.[8] On March 16, 2011 at the University of Ottawa, in the company of such distinguished guests as Member of Parliament Royal Galipeau and the President of the University, Allan Rock,[9] it was officially announced that Dr Martineau had been awarded $2.5 million in research funding for the international and interdisciplinary project Le français à la mesure d'un continent: un patrimoine en partage. Mr Rock stressed the importance of this project, which will enhance Canada's standing as a leader in international research on the French language.[10]
France Martineau is editor of the Voies du français collection published by the Presses de l'Université Laval,[2][11] and has been president of the Canadian Linguistics Association since 2011 (vice-president since 2009).[12]
She manages the Laboratoire des Polyphonies, where students have the opportunity to learn and apply new skills.
