Biography

Sébastien Lemieux trained as a microbiologist but turned to bioinformatics in 1997, completing his MSc and PhD at Université de Montréal under the supervision of François Major. After obtaining his PhD in 2002, he headed to the private sector for postdoctoral training at Elitra Canada (now Merck & Co) under the supervision of Bo Jiang. There he acquired skills in sequence analysis and the analysis of DNA microarray data, as well as in the integration of experimental data with computational techniques.

Lemieux joined Université de Montréal in 2005, first at the Institute for Research in Immunology and Cancer (IRIC). In 2018, he was appointed associate professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine of the Faculty of Medicine.
