Grant: Canada Research Chairs
Université d'Ottawa
$100,000.00
Chemical Biology
FY 2024-25
Summary
Dr. Shuhendler's research vision remains the imaging of fundamental biochemistry with high spatial and temporal resolution in live subjects. Through the development of chemical probes that can report on biomolecular activities deep in the body, he will be able to more completely understand how these biomolecules drive injury (e.g. concussion) and can modulate therapeutic success (e.g. the drug resistance phenotype of cancer). On the one hand, his research outcomes will enhance our understanding of key biomolecular effectors of life through enabling probe technologies. On the other hand, his work can also provide clinically relevant agents to expand diagnostic imaging capabilities.
