Gabor Kunstatter obtained both his B.A.Sc. in Engineering Science (Physics) and his PhD in general relativity at the University of Toronto. He then spent two years at Imperial College (London) as a NATO Postdoctoral Fellow before returning to the University of Toronto for four years as an NSERC University Research Fellow. Dr. Kunstatter took up his current position at the University of Winnipeg in 1985, becoming a Full Professor of Physics in 1992. He served as Chair of the Physics Department from 2000-2002 and spent the next six years completing a five year term as Dean of Science. He has been a visiting scientist at M.I.T., Université de Paris (Orsay), UNAM (Mexico), University of Nottingham and CECS (Chile). Dr. Kunstatter’s research interests include a variety of topics in theoretical physics. He has worked on relativity, gauge theory quantization, finite temperature quantum field theory, quantum computing and quantum gravity. Most recently, his work focuses on the semi-classical effects of quantum gravity on black holes and black hole formation. Having taught a full spectrum of courses over the years, Dr. Kunstatter remains fully committed to undergraduate teaching and particularly to the involvement of undergraduates in research. This commitment comes from the strong belief that, for universities, teaching and research are two sides of the same valuable coin. In addition to supervising the summer research of a large number of outstanding undergraduates at the University of Winnipeg, Dr. Kunstatter has supervised several excellent graduate students via an adjunct professorship at the University of Manitoba. He is a founding member, currently serving as Chair, of the Winnipeg Institute for Theoretical Physics which is a joint research institute of Brandon University, the University of Manitoba and the University of Winnipeg. Dr. Kunstatter has been a member of the CAP for close to twenty-five years, having joined in 1986. He toured as CAP Lecturer three times (1987, 1994 and 2005, with the next apparently scheduled for 2018 if the sequence of prime numbers continues). Dr. Kunstatter served as CAP Councillor for Manitoba and Saskatchewan from 1986-88 and chaired the Theory Division in 1991/92. He also served on the Editorial Advisory Board of the CJP from 1995-98. Dr. Kunstatter completed two terms on NSERC GSC’s, the first from 1992-95 on GSC 29 and the second from 2006-09 on GSC 17, which he chaired in the last year.
