Carole Yauk is a Full Professor in the Department of Biology at the University of Ottawa, affiliated with the Faculty of Science. She leads the GReAT (Genomics in Regulatory and Applied Toxicology) lab, which bridges academic and regulatory sciences to modernize toxicological testing and risk assessment. Her research focuses on toxicogenomics and environmental mutagenesis, applying genomic tools like transcriptomics and mutation analysis to understand chemical-induced health risks, particularly in parental and offspring genomes. The GReAT lab emphasizes translating genomic innovations into regulatory policies. Her recent work includes studies on paternal chemical exposure effects, tiered testing for chemical risk, and improving carcinogenicity assessment through genomic approaches.
Research interests include genomics, genetic toxicology, environmental mutagenesis, and regulatory science. She collaborates across sectors to enhance the application of genomic methodologies in toxicology. The lab’s efforts aim to address methodological gaps in mutation analysis and promote evidence-based decision-making for chemical safety.
No scientific awards are explicitly listed. Her work involves grants and collaborations, though specific funding details are not provided. The GReAT lab’s mission is to revolutionize chemical risk evaluation by integrating cutting-edge genomic technologies into regulatory frameworks.
