We are delighted to celebrate Loïc Binan, Stéphanie Zandee, and Simon Thebault on receiving support through the Canadian Foundation for Innovation (CFI) John R. Evans Leaders Fund (JELF).
Their projects will strengthen cutting-edge research infrastructure and advance innovative work in neurobiology, neuroimmunology, neurodegeneration, and human neuropathology.
🔬 Loïc Binan — Investigating the Role of Gene Regulatory Networks on Tissue Self-organization — $316,000
🧬 Stéphanie Zandee — Whole-brain-hemisphere Cryosectioning for Spatially Resolved Transcriptomics and Proteomics in Human Neuropathology — $220,933
🧠 Simon Thebault — High-dimensional Spectral Flow Sorting of Rare Immune Cells Driving CNS Compartmentalized Inflammation in MS — $297,980
This achievement is part of $7.7 million awarded to 25 McGill researchers through CFI’s JELF, with matching support from the Government of Quebec bringing the total investment to more than $15 million.
We are proud to see Ludmer Centre researchers contributing to this exciting investment in the future of research and innovation at McGill.
Congratulations, Loïc, Stéphanie, and Simon! 👏🎉
