Biography<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Ph.D, McGill University, and post-doctoral training, Harvard University.\u00a0 We have been funded since 1993 by MRC\/CIHR, NCIC and NSERC and with fellowships from FRQS and a Career Scientist Award from the NCIC.\u00a0 Our research focuses on two themes (i) DNA damage and repair, and (ii) the role of uptake transporters in causing resistance towards anticancer drugs. Together with my past and present dedicated team of graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and research assistants, we have published over 90 peer-reviewed papers and book chapters, and 138 meeting abstracts.\u00a0 In addition, I have delivered over 60 invited lectures around the world and serving extensively on national and international panels for reviewing grants and awards. To date, I have graduated and personally trained 46 highly qualify personnel (22 awarded with M.Sc, 10 with Ph.D, 9 with post-doctoral training and 5 research assistants). There were also over 40 visiting professionals and undergraduates in my laboratory.\u00a0 Some of my former trainees are tenured professors and others are heading various departments in pharmaceutical industries. We are fully equipped to conduct studies with various model systems such as yeast, C. elegans<\/em>, mammalian cells and patient samples.<\/p>\n\n
