I recently had the opportunity to visit Prof. Aïda Ouangraoua’s lab at the University of Sherbrooke, and I thought to share a bit about the experience. After attending the RNA Canada ARN 2024 / 25th RiboClub Annual Meeting in Ottawa late last year, I spent two deeply enriching weeks in Prof. Aïda’s lab diving into

In October 2024, I was honoured to present an oral talk at the RNA Canada ARN / RiboClub Annual Meeting in Ottawa. This event brought together over 500 researchers to discuss advancements in RNA-based technologies.  My presentation focused on detecting N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modifications using CHEUI, a deep learning tool developed by our Computational RNA

In June 2023, I had the privilege of attending the 50 Years Shine-Dalgarno Symposium, hosted by the Australian National University (ANU) at the Shine Dome in Canberra. This event commemorated the discovery of the Shine-Dalgarno sequence in mRNA and marked the launch of the Shine-Dalgarno Centre for RNA Innovation. The symposium followed closely after the

In May 2023, I had the opportunity to present my research at the 28th Annual Meeting of the RNA Society, held at the Suntec Convention & Exhibition Centre in Singapore. This event brought together leading scientists to discuss the latest advancements in RNA biology. I presented a poster titled “Profiling m6A and m5C RNA Modifications
