Welcome to this 7th edition!

It is with great pleasure that CERMO-FC invites you to its annual symposium, on Thursday, November 20, and Friday, November 21, 2025, at the Chaufferie du Cœur des sciences at UQAM.

This event is an excellent opportunity for researchers and student members of the Center to learn more about the diversity of our expertise and our research interests, and thus pave the way for new collaborations.

Emphasis will be placed on presentations given by student members of CERMO-FC. Oral and poster presentations will enrich their CVs, and increase the visibility of our members' research. The deadline for abstract submission is October 10, 2025 at 3:00 p.m.

During a plenary lecture on Thursday, we will have the pleasure of hearing the latest research advances by Vincent Mooser, professor at Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at McGill University and holder of the Canada Excellence Research Chair in Genomic Medicine: From Genes to Next Generation Therapies.

Find out more about the work of Pr Vincent Mooser.

Hope to see you there in large numbers!
