The Institut national de la recherche scientifique has unveiled a new Chair in Nanobiophotonics, which will be co-led by INRS professors Marc A Gauthier and Jonathan Perreault. The chair is interdisciplinary, involving the fields of pharmaceutical chemistry, molecular biology, immuno-oncology, ultrafast imaging, and biophotonics. “In concrete terms, [this chair’s research] could lead to significant advances in precision medicine and more effective diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in immuno-oncology, among other medical applications,” explained Perreault. The position is funded by the INRS Foundation.
