Published on June 2, 2023
The provincial final of the Science POP science communication competition was held on May 27 and 28. Finalists from the fifteen participating research institutions competed in three challenge categories: mobilization, valorization and popularization. In the popularization category, Juliette Humeau, a postdoctoral student in Claude Perreault’s laboratory, won the People’s Choice Award for her presentation entitled “L’action coordonnée des cellules immunitaires dans la lutte anticancéreuse” (“Coordinated action of immune cells in the fight against cancer”).
Charles Homsi, a Ph.D. student in Pierre Thibault’s and Alain Verreault’s labs, and Boubacar Sidiki Traore, a Ph.D. student in Michel Bouvier’s lab, were also part of the contingent representing IRIC at the provincial final. They took part in the mobilization and valorization challenges, respectively.
Science POP is a pan-Quebec science communication initiative proposed by the Institut de recherches cliniques de Montréal (IRCM) and supported by the Fonds de recherche du Québec – Santé (FRQS), with the aim of promoting science-society dialogue.
Congratulations to all!
