Tell us about yourself and your research.<\/strong><\/h6>\n

I am a professor of nutrition at Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al in Montreal, Quebec and a registered dietitian. My research pertains to malnutrition in the context of chronic diseases, including chronic liver diseases. Our ultimate goal is to improve the lives of patients and their caregivers and families using our translational research program. We perform basic research to understand the mechanisms of chronic liver diseases and we also engage patients and caregivers in our clinical studies. A few examples of our ongoing studies are the investigation of the impact of nutritional supplementation on gut health and muscle mass optimization in chronic liver disease, the assessment of nutritional education strategies in the context of chronic liver disease and the effect of an early nutritional intervention in liver transplant recipients. I am committed to advancing research and quality of care for people with chronic liver disease and transplant recipients.<\/p>\n

What do you appreciate the most about CDTRP?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h6>\n

I see CDTRP like a safe place of collaboration and meaningful exchanges with people who are passionate and dedicated for a common and noble goal: to improve long-term outcomes for people receiving a transplant. The active implication of patients, families, donors, researchers, allied health professionals and physicians is a tremendous strength of the CDTRP. In other words, CDTRP is a wonderful team of human beings. I really appreciate being part of this team and I feel privileged to be in contact with patients who are generous enough to share their experiences and expertise, it is really precious to me.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

What do you hope to achieve with the Meeting (outcomes) as the co-chair?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h6>\n

As a co-chair of the 11th<\/sup> Edition of the Annual Scientific Meeting, I hope to pursue the tradition of the CDTRP in bringing together people from various backgrounds to discuss and exchange about important and relevant topics in the world of transplantation. I humbly wish to contribute to the conversation and share my thoughts and ideas, from a holistic point of view, in order to fulfill CDTRP\u2019s vision as well as Theme 5\u2019s overarching goal to \u201crestore long-term health\u201d. Finally, I would like to achieve an actionable strategy that will guide us in the coming year.<\/p>\n

Tell us a fun fact about yourself!<\/strong><\/h6>\n

I am literally in love with my 5 years old golden doodle, Olive. I often \u201cshare my thoughts\u201d with her as she is a very good listener \ud83d\ude09 She is a little bundle of joy and love.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
