After completing a bachelor’s degree in biochemistry at the Université de Montréal, Vincent Archambault completed a Ph.D. at The Rockefeller University in New York City, where he studied cell cycle regulation in the budding yeast.

In 2004, he embarked on a postdoctoral fellowship in the group led by David Glover at the University of Cambridge, UK. There, he uncovered novel mechanisms that regulate mitosis using the fruit fly Drosophila. Dr. Archambault joined IRIC in 2009.

Cell Cycle Regulation

Vincent Archambault and his team study the molecular mechanisms that regulate the cell division cycle, with a focus on mitosis. Defects in this process can contribute to the production and aberrant proliferation of cancer cells.
