David Hamelin
Mila, Université de Montréal, Institut de Cardiologie de Montréal
Supported by a great mentor and surrounded by brilliant collaborators, I am currently leading a disruptive project aimed at developing a deeper understanding of SARS-CoV-2's impact on our immune systems. We are doing so using a combination of machine learning tools, as well as computational and experimental immunology.
Cantin Baron
Mila, Université de Montréal - Institut de Cardiologie de Montréal
Energized by the molecular stories hidden in data, Dr. Cantin Baron draws on more than ten years of experience, from genomics to metabolomics to decode molecular data. He harnesses machine learning to translate these diverse datasets into actionable insights. Collaborating with Mila and the Montreal Heart Institute, he aims to deepen understanding across every facet of biology.

Mila
I have over 10 years of applied research experience spanning multiple domains, and have consistently demonstrated my ability to learn on my feet. I'm fascinated by the use of machine learning to accelerate our understanding of the natural sciences, particularly biology, with an eye on biomanufacturing, agriculture, and healthcare applications.
