Welcome!

Philippe Roux and his team seek to understand the molecular mechanisms by which oncogenes transform a normal cell into a cancerous one. This knowledge is crucial for the discovery of novel therapeutic targets and to decipher the molecular causes of resistance to treatment.

We use mouse genetic, biochemical, molecular and cellular biological techniques, as well as proteomics, to study oncogenic signal transduction in normal and cancer cells.

Part of theDepartment of Pathology and Cell Biology of the Université de Montréal, our lab is located at the Institute for Research in Immunology and Cancer (IRIC).

The following pages present a short description of the laboratory's current research projects with examples of publications resulting from our work.

Have a good visit!
