Biography

Jonathan LaMarre is a veterinary biomedical scientist and reproductive biologist at the University of Guelph. His research focuses on understanding the basic processes underlying cellular physiological events relevant to animal and human health, with an emphasis on fertility and development. LaMarre's work explores post-transcriptional control of gene expression, studying the effects of small RNA molecules such as microRNAs and piwi-interacting RNAs on RNA targets that regulate RNA decay and translation. His laboratory investigates mammalian gametes and embryos, contributing significantly to the understanding of ovarian follicle and corpus luteum function. He has conducted studies using tumor cell models to explore cellular growth dysregulation. LaMarre's future research directions include investigating molecular mechanisms that govern gene expression changes during embryo development and how these factors may play roles in cellular behavior. He has secured funding from various sources, including the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs.
