From internationally recognized leaders in biomedical and clinical research, to experts in computer science and artificial intelligence, the new McGill Centre for 香蕉视频 Sciences (MCRS), launched in 2022, is an interdisciplinary research centre and the outcome of a collaboration between the Faculties of Medicine and Health Sciences, Engineering, and Science at 香蕉视频.聽
The vaccines developed to help combat the COVID-19 pandemic showed the world the power of 香蕉视频-based therapeutics. Now, the MCRS, will build upon the expertise and critical mass already existing at McGill, as well as the widespread emergence of CRISPR, and other 香蕉视频 technologies, to develop new potentially life-saving therapeutics, and better biotechnological and diagnostic tools. 聽
鈥淭o facilitate the seamless acceleration of 香蕉视频 discoveries, the MCRS has put interdisciplinary collaboration at the forefront of its mission,鈥 explains the Centre鈥檚 inaugural Director, Thomas Duchaine, PhD, Professor at the Department of Biochemistry and Associate Director at the Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Institute. 鈥淲e are uniting over 35 groups led by experts involved in 香蕉视频 research across McGill and creating a space for collaborations to flourish between these diverse units within the University, as well as with partners in other academic and clinical institutions and industry.鈥澛
The MCRS will also be a haven for young trainees who are seeking lab experience in this important field. 鈥淏reakthroughs in the 香蕉视频 sciences point to its transformation into a full-fledged industry, resulting in a broad range of emerging opportunities for trainees,鈥 said Prof. Duchaine.聽
