Research associates
Riyan Chen, PhD
Riyan originally came from China where he obtained his PhD to the USA. After finishing his postdoctoral training at the University of Utah and the University of Minnesota, he joined the IRCM. He works on the biochemical functions and interactions of the Gfi1, Gfi1b and Miz-1 proteins.
Hugues Beauchemin, PhD
Hugues obtained his PhD degree from Université de Montréal in Molecular Biology and did his postdoctoral training at the Montreal Children Hospital, McGill University in Montreal. He is currently studying the role of Gfi1b in megakaryopoiesis and erythropoiesis.
Kaifee Arman, PhD
Kaifee completed his bachelor’s in pharmacy from India, then moved to Turkey for his master’s and PhD. He completed his PhD in Medical Biology and Genetics and worked on long non-coding RNAs implications in cancer. Currently, he is working on the identification of long non-coding RNAs that are regulated by Gfi1, c-Myc during myeloid differentiation, leukemia and lymphoma.
Post-doctorate fellows
Eva-Maria Piskor, PhD
Eva-Maria is originally from Germany and holds a PhD degree in Immunology from the Friedrich Schiller University Jena. She is investigating in the role of RNA-binding proteins and their role in regulation of B cell development, immune response, and lymphomagenesis.
Eulalie Corre, PhD
Eulalie Corre is a Ph.D. graduate in Cancer Biology from the University of Toulouse with over five years of research experience in oncology, particularly in acute myeloid leukemia and cancer cell signaling. She has led multiple research projects involving cell biology, molecular biology, and proteomics, and has published studies on AKT isoforms in leukemia and mechanisms of resistance to BRAF inhibitors. She brings strong technical expertise, and experience working with diverse cancer models to the Moroy Lab.
Research assistant
Mathieu Lapointe
Mathieu holds a BSc degree in Biochemistry from Université Laval in Québec City, a certificate in “Génie Génétique” from Université Laval and a certificate in administration from UQAM. He oversees the genotyping of all gene modified mouse lines in the laboratory.
Intern
Lisa Harloff
Lisa is a medical student from the University of Luebeck in Germany. She is currently working on her doctoral thesis and investigates the TET2 mutation in different myeloid cell lines to find new targeted therapies.
