"Compartmentalization of the DNA damage response: Mechanisms and functions"

Our research investigates the molecular mechanisms and functions of protein compartmentalization in response to DNA damage and repair. Focusing on two critical scaffolding proteins, TopBP1 and SLX4, we have elucidated how their assembly into nanocondensate clusters following DNA damage activates specific signalling pathways. Our research aims to demonstrate how DNA repair foci, functioning as biomolecular condensates, link molecular mechanisms to cellular physiological functions. Our work offers valuable insights into the regulatory mechanisms of the DNA damage response compartmentalization and opens new avenues for developing innovative cancer management strategies.

"Oncogenic cooperations : investigating inter and intra-tumoral heterogeneity in hepatocellular carcinoma"

Dr. Gregoire and his collaborators develop innovative murine models to study liver cancer heterogenity. They explore how the genetic composition of hepatocarcinoma influences their development, their interaction with the microenvironment, and their response to therapies.
