The Team - How it started

When he read about the Code Life Challenge, Gabriel Tremblay Grenier, thought about bringing together a highly talented team of out-of-the-box thinkers. With his skills in user interface design and coding, he proposed to build the UI to operate the machine.

Louis-Pierre Fortin who started his tinkering career by cutting 2 cars in half and reassembling the two halves into a fully functional vehicle. He worked for Google as a mechanical engineer and is now designing medical and industrial robots in (and outside) of Montreal.

Dr. Jean-Francois Bouchard is notorious in Gabriel’s home region of Charlevoix, Quebec, where at a young age, JF built a functional and autonomous utopia, including energy, food and water sources, as well as transportation systems. He’s now director of a medical division at a hospital in Sept-Isles, Quebec.

Frederic Lauzon is a coding wizard and the brains behind the firmware. Frederic managed a team of software engineers who developed firmware for a robotic medical platform that currently performs countless operations.

Sylvain Brisebois is a *ware engineer. He begin his career by doing R&D support as a technician and by the time complete his degree and now work as a multi-disciplinary engineer. Electronics is a passion form him, and he doesn't consider his job as a job, but a paid pass-time. He's the guru behind the electrical design of the project.

The team is additionally supported by an array of external contributors, including respiratory therapists, engineers, planners, thinkers, family and friends.
