S04 EP1: CEEHRC 2025 Round Table

Have you ever wanted to sit down with three generations of scientists and have an honest conversation about research careers, the realities of doing a PhD, and the future of science? In this special live episode recorded at the 2025 CEEHRC Annual General Meeting in Banff, host Sabrina brings together one PhD student, a postdoctoral fellow, and a professor to share perspectives from different stages of a scientific career. From why they chose to pursue a PhD to how their career goals have evolved over time, the panel reflects on the many paths a research career can take. The conversation also explores some of the challenges facing early-career researchers today, including funding pressures and job uncertainty to the importance of networking, mentorship, and trainee communities. The episode closes with advice for incoming graduate students and reflections on the personal and professional growth that comes with pursuing a PhD.

S03 EP5: Interview with Dr. Amélie Fradet-Turcotte

Dr. Amélie Fradet-Turcotte is a Professor at Université Laval and a researcher at the CHU de Québec–Université Laval Research Centre. Her research explores how our cells maintain the integrity of their genome, especially in the context of viral infections like HPV. Using a powerful mix of biochemistry and molecular biology, her lab uncovers how viruses hijack our DNA repair machinery. Tune in if you’re curious about how viruses interact with this machinery, what happens when repair mechanisms fail, and how this all connects to cancer research. In our conversation, Dr. Fradet-Turcotte also shares a powerful message: you must try something to know whether you’ll like it or not. If you don’t try, you’ll never know!

S03 EP4: Entrevue avec Dr. Jean-François Couture

Dr. Jean-François Couture est professeur et directeur du Département de biochimie, microbiologie et immunologie à l’Université d’Ottawa. Dans cet épisode, co-animé par Sabrina Grégoire et Camille Souchet, il partage sa passion pour la biologie structurale de la chromatine et souligne l'importance d'un bon réseau pour réussir dans un parcours académique.
