INTRODUCING THE LAB

Our lab is a basic science research group located in the Research Centre at the University of Montreal Hospital CRCHUM. We aim to understand the cellular
​basis of infertility by unravelling how healthy oocytes (eggs) and embryos are made, specialising in live cellular imaging and Cell Biology approaches.
