  • Frédérique has been working on this article for Microbial Biotechnology with a group of over 20 people from all over the world. This editorial highlights the importance of microbiology education to different parts of the society and the impact this has for our future generations.

  • Jeffrey is doing his Bachelor in Microbiology at UdeM, and he will be working in our Lab as a summer intern from May to August 2024!

  • “Bravo Recherche” (“Bravo Research”) is an event organized by UdeM to recognize all the researchers that have obtained awards, prices and grants that will help them fulfill their research projects. This time, Frédérique was mentioned, highlighting her Canadian Excellence Research Chair grant award (CERC).

    Here is a part of the video that was recorded in our lab, and was passed the day of the event!

  • Among the many conferences Frédérique has been giving lately, this last conference was in our Microbiology Department at UdeM. She presented some previous results, as well as future projects and unpublished results. We had a lot of very interesting questions and brainstorming of ideas!

  • IVADO’s contribution aims to facilitate the integration and influence of a new professor within the Canadian university reality and to contribute to the launch of her research career. This award correlates with our aim to dissect coevolution mechanisms by analyzing, bacterial defenses, cross-infection matrices and phage accessory genomes, potentially revealing a diverse array of anti-defense systems. Congratulations Frédérique!

  • Manon participated in the Microphiles Seminar in our Department of Microbiology, here at UdeM. Since she just started her project, she told us about her previous PhD projet in France. Well done Manon!

    Here we can see Manon summarizing the post-doc project in our lab!
  • Frédérique has been busy lately! She gave a conference at Laval University talking about the lab’s upcoming projects. We are so happy that more people within the academic environment are getting to know us and the lab! Great job Frédérique!

  • We added two new members to the lab! Manon is our first Post-doc, and Vicky will be the Principal Project Coordinator of the CERC. We are so glad you joined us!
