Édouard Montpetit (Chemin de la tour)\, Montréal. \n  \n  \n  \nProfessor Dao Nguyen\nProfessor\, Department of Medicine\, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences\, McGill University. Scientist\, RI-MUHC (Translational Research in Respiratory Diseases Program) . \nMICROBIOLOGY\, INFECTIOLOGY AND IMMUNOLOGY \nFor our next departmental seminar\, to be held on Thursday\, January 22\, 2026\, we are delighted to welcome Dr. Dao Nguyen (M.D.\, M.Sc.)\, invited by Professor Yves Brun. \nThe presentation will be given in English. \nDr. Nguyen studies the molecular microbiology of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other infectious biofilms\, focusing on chronic airway infections in cystic fibrosis. Her work focuses on antibiotic tolerance mechanisms and host-pathogen interactions\, with the aim of identifying therapeutic approaches to improve bacterial clearance. \nBelow is a summary of his presentation. \nDifficult to treat Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections: from mechanisms to therapeutics \nBacterial infections that are refractory to antibiotic treatment lead to poor health outcomes. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major opportunistic pathogen that causes a multitude of difficult-to-treat human infections\, both acute and chronic. P. aeruginosa not only displays intrinsic resistance to many antibiotics\, but also antibiotic tolerance and host-evasion strategies. The Nguyen lab investigates bacterial mechanisms and host-pathogen interactions that contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic airway infections in individuals with cystic fibrosis\, as well as novel therapeutic approaches to improve P. aeruginosa clearance.

Desmarais Pavilion\, room 1120. \n  \nSpeaker: Dr. Marissa Rashkovan\nAssistant professor-researcher\nDepartment of Pathology and Cell Biology\nUniversité de Montréal. \n  \nLipid biosynthesis in T-ALL \nCancer cells reprogram their metabolism to support rapid proliferation. Lipids are essential not only as structural components of cell membranes\, but also for signaling\, proliferation and energy storage. We propose to target lipids and membrane dynamics for the treatment of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). \nThe conference will be held in French. \nGuest of : Dr Noël Raynal \nTeachers who would like to meet the speaker after the session are asked to contact : Pf. Badhwar ; Pf. Najmanovich ; Pf. Raynal \n \nWe’re waiting for you with good coffee!!! \nViennese pastries will be offered to the first 25 people to arrive! \n Don’t forget to bring your own coffee cups \n  URL:https://cibmontreal.ca/en/event/lipid-biosynthesis-in-t-all/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260113T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260113T170000 DTSTAMP:20260405T060136 CREATED:20260112T194711Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260112T194913Z UID:10000187-1768320000-1768323600@cibmontreal.ca SUMMARY:Neurodiscussions: Rajae Talbi DESCRIPTION:SNC research group on Neural Signalingand Circulation \n \nLaboratory of Rajae Talbi\, PhD \nAssistant Professor \nDepartment of Pharmacology and Physiology\, Université de Montréal \nKiss and burn: Kiss1 neurons at the intersection of fertility and metabolism \nDate: Tuesday\, January 13\, 2026\, 4pm \nLocation Room 1120\, Pavillon Paul-G.-Desmarais \nIf you have new team members (students\, postdocs\, research staff) and would like them to be added to the CNS mailing list\, please send their e-mail to louis-eric.trudeau@umontreal.ca. \nRefreshments and pizzas will be served after the seminar to keep the discussion going. \nContacts: \nMarina Martinez\, marina.martinez@umontreal.ca \nRaphaël Trouillon: raphael.trouillon@polymtl.ca \n  \nOther CNS activities: https://www.grsnc.org/neurodiscussions URL:https://cibmontreal.ca/en/event/neurodiscussions-rajae-talbi/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20251201T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20251201T200000 DTSTAMP:20260405T060136 CREATED:20251111T184813Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251111T184813Z UID:10000178-1764612000-1764619200@cibmontreal.ca SUMMARY:Spinelli Public Conference - Parkinson's Disease - 2nd Edition - English DESCRIPTION:You are invited to the second Spinelli public conference on Parkinson’s disease\, organized by the Department of Neurosciences at the Université de Montréal.
