After graduate studies in molecular and evolutionary biology, I joined the Levesque laboratory as a postdoctoral fellow to study the genomics of P. aeruginosa in the context of cystic fibrosis chronic lung infections. To achieve this, I received postdoctoral scholarships from the Quebec respiratory health training program (2011-2012) and Cystic Fibrosis Canada (2013-2016). Since July 2016, I work as a research associate for the Genome Canada project on salmonella genome sequencing in the context of foodborne illness. I contribute to all aspects of this project, from research planning to data analysis. I am also in charge of updating the SalFos web database. Science aside, I specialize in baking, which is much appreciated by my colleagues.
