معرفی
Annie Angers is a Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at the Université de Montréal, affiliated with the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. Her research focuses on cellular physiology, particularly receptor internalization, mitochondrial biology, and ubiquitin ligase regulation. She leads a lab investigating molecular mechanisms in vesicular trafficking, mitochondrial-derived peptides, and mitophagy, using techniques like CRISPR/Cas9 and immunofluorescence. Dr. Angers has supervised numerous students and secured grants from NSERC and FRQNT, contributing to projects on endocytosis, mitochondrial genomics, and molluscan cell lines. Her work bridges molecular, cellular, and evolutionary biology, with implications for understanding cellular signaling and disease mechanisms.
- Education: Ph.D. in Biochemistry from Université de Montréal (1998), Postdoctoral studies at McGill University (2000–2003) and University of Texas (1998–2000).
- Grants: NSERC Discovery Grants, FRQNT Team Projects, including studies on ITCH ubiquitin ligase and mitochondrial alternative proteins.
- Research Interests: Ubiquitin-mediated signaling, mitochondrial function, and evolutionary genomics in bivalves.
- Collaborations: Works with Sophie Breton and Xavier Roucou on mitochondrial alternative proteins and molluscan cell lines.
Dr. Angers' lab is located in the Science Complex at the University of Montreal’s MIL Campus. She actively mentors students and researchers, emphasizing external scholarship applications for funding.
