PETER SIEGEL, PH. D.
Professor, Department of Medicine, McGill University
Full Member, Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Institute
Associate Member, Departments of Biochemistry, Anatomy and Cell Biology, and Oncology
“We’ve identified a particular protein that is essential for this metastatic process, [from the primary tumour to the lungs and liver].”
For Peter Siegel, every research breakthrough represents a step closer to better breast cancer treatments. A professor at McGill University and researcher at the Goodman Cancer Institute, he focuses his work on understanding the mechanisms that drive cancer progression.
With support from the Cancer Research Society and la Vie en Rose, his team continues to study triple-negative breast cancer to advance new therapeutic approaches and improve outcomes for those affected.
NOLWENN NOISEL, PH. D.
Associate Professor
Department of Environmental and Occupational Health
School of Public Health
Université de Montréal
“Many environmental factors may still play a role in the onset of the disease, but we don’t yet know what they are.”
Understanding how our environment influences health is at the heart of Nolwenn Noisel’s research. As a professor at the School of Public Health of Université de Montréal (ESPUM), she studies the effects of environmental exposures and stress on health.
Her project explores how pollutants, stress and accelerated aging may influence breast cancer risk to identify new risk factors and contribute to improved prevention strategies.
