Thank you @CR_CHUSJ for showcasing our lab's work, led by @LM_Legault , on the impact of early embryonic alcohol exposure on the placenta. @CIHR_IRSC @FRQS1 #epigenetics
Exposition de l’embryon à l’alcool en tout début de grossesse : des effets épigénétiques décelables dans le placenta selon une nouvelle étude par

Latest paper is now out! This one might be even more special as it is my last PhD paper. Thanks to all the co-authors & @McGraw_Lab thanks for everything. I was lucky to spend my years as a graduate student in such a stimulating environment, with an amazing team and involved PI.
Paper alert! @LM_Legault et. al show that preimplantation alcohol exposure alters the #DNAmethylation and transcriptomic profiles in mouse placentas in a sex-specific manner, with DNA methylation being a robust predictive signature. bit.ly/4egTNcZ @CR_CHUSJ #FASD
Amazing project led by @eli__elder
Look at these figures 👌🏻
What is the long-term impact of loss of sustained DNA methylation maintenance by DNMT1 for molecular and cellular integrity of mouse embryonic stem cells?
Thrilled to share the lab’s newest preprint bit.ly/3WDALr5
Amazing effort from @eli__elder and team!

And that's a wrap on #CanEpi23! Thank you to everyone who attended and all of the sponsors for their continued support of our meeting. We've enjoyed seeing all of the amazing science and wonderful interactions that have taken place over the last 3 days.
See you all in 2024!

Happy to share our study in @FASEBorg ! Using a mouse model of pre-implantation alcohol exposure, we show that a maternal enriched diet for methyl-donor mitigates the negative impacts of alcohol exposure. #FASD bit.ly/3LcatGS
Awesome view after great science at #DOHaD2022 in Vancouver! First in person meeting since early 2020 and first one with my little human!
