Dr. Selmani studied in Bordeaux University and has PhD in Material Sciences (1985) from the University of Montreal.  He is a former Professor at the engineering school, École Polytechnique de Montréal.  Dr. Selmani’s research in biomaterials and biotechnologies led him to incorporate BioSyntech in 1995 and be part of its executive team as CEO and Chairman of the Board for almost 10 years. During his tenure, Dr. Selmani took this biotechnology company public on both Nasdaq and TSX.

Also, Dr. Selmani founded in 1992 POLNOR (Polytechnique-Noranda), a large group of engineers and professionals, with the mandate to provide higher value to the Noranda amorphous selenium and other byproducts. Big funds coming from Noranda, Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, 3M and The Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal allowed the development of a high-resolution selenium-based direct X-ray detectors, specifically designed for full-field digital mammography used in most radiology centers in the world and commercialized by the well-known company in the field, Analogic.
