Mai Nguyen
Research Associate
Mai joined as a Research Associate after a successful tenure in the lab of Gordon Shore (McGill). Mai has researched mitochondria throughout her career, from transcriptional pathways to protein import, cell death, cancer, and the development of therapeutics. In Dr. McBride's laboratory, her goal is to uncover the signaling pathways that couple mitochondrial sumo ligase MAPL to cellular responses. She recently discovered some key components that potentially link lysosomal damage response to mitochondrial dysfunction. Mai's strength is her commitment to teamwork. She readily embraces expertise from new lab members and enjoys the interaction at all levels
