Accomplishments
I participated in the preclinical phase launch of several molecules (4) for oncology, including radio-labeled material.
I was involved in the creation and development of a new academic CRO service (Organic Synthesis Service of the CRCHU de Québec) in which I helped several life science researchers.
Among others, I collaborated in the development of a new phytochemical agent marketed under the Weed Out Ultra® brand. I invented new synthetic analogues of omega-3 acids with amazing biological properties that have attracted several investments resulting in a turnover increase of the Service.
