السيرة الذاتية

Dr. Mustapha Aouida received his PhD in Molecular and Cell Biology in 2003 from both the Science University of Tunis and Gustave Roussy Institute, Paris. For his post-doctoral fellowship he joined Professor Ramotar at Maisonneuve-Rosemont Research Institute in Montreal where he studied the mechanism by which yeast cells and mammalian cells become resistant to the antitumor drug bleomycin. Dr. Aouida joined the College of Health and Life Sciences in April 2016 as a Lab Manager and is currently a Research Scientist at the college.

 

 


الاهتمامات البحثية

Genome editing using the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR associated 9 (Cas9) technology is revolutionizing the study of gene function and likely will give rise to an entire new class of therapeutics for a wide range of diseases. Achieving this goal requires not only characterization of the technology for efficacy and specificity but also optimization of its delivery to the target cells. My laboratory is particularly interested to improve the efficiency and the specificity of CRISPR/Cas9 system and also to investigate the use of this technology in some applications such as cancer drug target discovery and understanding the molecular basis of diabetes and obesity.
