Branton, PhD, a dear colleague, friend, and brilliant scientist whose career profoundly shaped cancer research. Formerly Chair of the Department of Biochemistry (1990–2000), and a Full Member of the �鶹Լ�� Cancer Centre (now the GCI) and the Gerald Bronfman Department of Oncology, Professor Branton made pioneering contributions to the fields of virology, cell death, and tumor suppression for more than five decades.</p> Wed, 18 Sep 2024 14:52:39 +0000 hua.ling@mcgill.ca 1442 at /biochemistry /biochemistry/channels/event/phd-oral-defence-359103 <p></p> Fri, 30 Aug 2024 17:13:29 +0000 hua.ling@mcgill.ca 1440 at /biochemistry /biochemistry/channels/news/recent-phd-oral-defences-343777 <p>The Department would like to congratulate the following students on their PhD oral defences:</p> <ul> <li>Rayelle Itoua Maiga - Lab of Jerry Pelletier (August 26, 2020)</li> <li>Angelia Bassenden - Lab of Albert Berghuis (October 20, 2020)</li> <li>Yaakov Elisha Stern - Lab of Morag Park (November 5, 2020)</li> </ul> Tue, 22 Nov 2022 16:00:42 +0000 justin.hand-gregory@mcgill.ca 1382 at /biochemistry /biochemistry/channels/event/elena-conti-phd-zoom-seminar-title-rna-exosome-dr-jekyll-and-mr-hyde-rna-333620 <p><strong>Elena Conti, Ph.D.</strong><br /> Director, Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry, Munich<br /> Honorary Professor, Ludwig Maximilian University, Munich</p> Thu, 23 Sep 2021 21:05:35 +0000 briana.blair@mcgill.ca 1371 at /biochemistry /biochemistry/channels/event/rasim-barutcu-phd-zoom-seminar-title-systematic-mapping-nuclear-domain-rna-associations-discover-331369 <p>Hosted by the Dept. of Biochemistry<br /> <strong>A.
