Yesterday we celebrated the departure of two talented postdocs, Luke Harrison and Alex Rivera-Millot, who are leaving for exciting new adventures — Luke as a Professor at McGill University in Montreal, and Alex as a Chargé de Recherche (CR) at the CNRS in France.

A big thank-you to both of them for their contributions, and best of luck in their future careers — I’m sure they will be nothing short of amazing!

Frédéric Veyrier obtained his M.Sc. degree from the INRS-Institut Armand Frappier Laval (Qc) on the metal homeostasis in different pathogens. He completed his PhD studies at McGill University, Montréal (Qc) on the evolution of the human pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis. He moved back to France in 2010 as a young researcher at the Institut Pasteur, Paris (France). His research focused on the common evolution of nasopharyngeal pathogens like Neisseria meningitidis, Haemophilus influenzae or Moraxella catarrhalis . Specifically, he is studying how bacterial metal transport and cell-wall have evolved to adjust to the stringent and competitive nasopharynx environment. He is now an associate professor at the INRS-Institut Armand Frappier in Canada continuing his work on human bacterial symbionts evolution.
