He then began his teaching career at Cégep de Lévis in the Biology and Biotechnology Department. He was one of TransBIOTech's very first research professors. Since then, he has continued to carry out applied research projects in support of innovation within life sciences companies.

He is also a regular research member of Université Laval's Institut en Nutrition et Aliments Fonctionnels.

TRAININGS

He holds a bachelor's degree in biology (microbiology) from Université de Sherbrooke, and a master's and doctorate in microbiology-immunology from Université Laval. He chose to further his knowledge and research expertise at Yale University (Connecticut), where he completed his postdoctoral training in immunobiology.
