Janelle Drouin-Ouellet obtained her PhD in Neurobiology from Laval University and subsequently completed her first postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Cambridge in the UK. She continued her postdoctoral work in Professor Malin Parmar's laboratory at Lund University in Sweden, where she developed a simple and effective approach for the direct neuronal reprogramming of skin fibroblasts from patients with various neurodegenerative diseases. Recently appointed as an associate professor at the Faculty of Pharmacy at the University of Montreal, Drouin-Ouellet's research focuses on understanding neurodegenerative diseases, particularly mechanisms of neuronal reprogramming and the impact of aging on microglial function. Her work aims to uncover new therapeutic targets for conditions such as Parkinson's disease, leveraging direct reprogramming techniques to create patient-derived cellular models for experimental investigation.
