A bit late, but we're beyond excited to announce it nonetheless! Together with Elodie Boisselier, we have recently obtained funding from the @CIHR_IRSC to explore novel therapeutic alternatives for retinal pathologies, using delivery systems based on gold nanoparticles.

Spoiler: Prenatal exposure to alcohol can be a silent effector of cognitive and neuroatypical features that manifest only in midlife and that are hard to diagnose. Guillaume studied how retinal responses can be informative of these changes as we age.
