Research Angle

Our work focuses on the use of so-called oncolytic viruses for the treatment of cancer. Specifically, we are genetically modifying viruses to improve their therapeutic efficacy, studying the factors in the tumor microenvironment that determine susceptibility, and also using these same viruses as a platform for the creation of cancer vaccines. Focus: breast cancer, leukemia and ovarian cancer.

Biography

Graduated with a doctorate in Microbiology and Immunology from the Université de Montréal, I completed a postdoctoral fellowship on viral therapy of cancer at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute before returning to Montreal to open my research laboratory at the CHUM Research Center in 2018.
