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 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.
