I’m happy to share this perspective paper regarding senescence and senotherapeutics in myotonic dystrophy. Great work led by Cécilia Légaré in collaboration with Elise Duchesne and ⁦@BerglundLab⁩. Very nice experience to work with these DM1 experts. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

I’m pleased to share our recent work, led by Lupann Rieger during her Master’s thesis, which has been published in ⁦@FASEBorg⁩. We provide new insights regarding how bioactive lipids regulate fiber typing. faseb.onlinelibrary.wiley.co…

I’m truly honoured to receive the André-Dupont award from the CRCQ for early career researchers in biomedical sciences. Next to my name, there should also be the names of all the students that did the work over the last few years.

Seeing in a conference a former postdoc that is becoming a successful PI is the best reward for a supervisor. Although a bottle of 5⭐️ Barbancourt is a close second.

First day of the 5th international conference on stem cells, development, and cancer ongoing. Beautiful talks by leaders in complementary fields. Thanks to our generous sponsors: Gairdner, Aura Stem, Lady Davis institute, CHU Sainte Justine, IRCM, TheCell, and stem cell network

First PhD student graduating. What an amazing moment, but also a bit bittersweet. Very proud of you Alyson, but also a bit sad to see you go. I guess it is part of being a PI to learn to let go these outstanding students and even better human beings.

What is the long-term impact of loss of sustained DNA methylation maintenance by DNMT1 for molecular and cellular integrity of mouse embryonic stem cells? Thrilled to share the lab’s newest preprint bit.ly/3WDALr5 Amazing effort from @eli__elder and team! 🧵1/11

My students and I had a great time at the iDMC-14 in the Netherlands. Huge congrats to the organizers. I’m glad to be part of the team that will organize the next one in Saguenay (Quebec, Canada). See you at the iDMC-15 in 2026.

Congrats Florian, Emmeran and the team. It was fun as usual to collaborate with you guys.
