Charles Leduc

Charles Leduc serves as an Associate Clinical Professor in the Department of Pathology and Cell Biology at Université de Montréal's Faculty of Medicine, where his clinical practice and research focus on pulmonary, cardiovascular, and mediastinal diseases through histopathological analysis.

His academic foundation includes:

• Medical degree from McGill University, Quebec
• Master of Science in Pharmacology from Université de Montréal, Quebec
• Fellowship in Thoracic Pathology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, USA
• Fellowship in Cardiovascular Pathology at Mayo Clinic, USA

Dr. Leduc's research centers on disease mechanisms in cardiac and pulmonary pathology, with emphasis on tumor characterization, vascular anomalies, and diagnostic methodologies. His work bridges clinical practice with laboratory investigation, frequently examining histopathological correlates of sudden cardiac death, neoplastic transformations, and immunotherapy complications. Collaborative efforts span cardiothoracic surgery, oncology, and molecular genetics disciplines to address complex diagnostic challenges.

Analysis of his 14 publications (2012-2019) reveals consistent expertise in cardiovascular pathology (43% of works), particularly cardiac tumors and congenital heart disease complications, alongside significant contributions to pulmonary pathology (36%) including lung cancer biomarkers and thoracic neoplasms. His research demonstrates methodological diversity across histopathology, molecular genetics, and clinical case analysis, with notable book chapter contributions to pulmonary pathology reference works.

Dr. Leduc contributes to medical education through the department's Virtual Histology Lab, a digital resource supporting pathology training, and maintains clinical responsibilities at affiliated teaching hospitals.
