The CRCHUM is the largest research center affiliated with theUniversity of Montreal. It employs more than 1,300 people working on strategic priority areas in line with the clinical activities of the University Hospitals. The MDRC was created in 2004 thanks to a large infrastructure grant from theCanadian Fund for Innovation. It groups more than 35 investigators and their research groups from four universities (U Montreal, McGill, Laval and Ottawa) interested who share a common mission: Understand to prevent and cure diabetes.

Within the MDRC, our laboratory specifically focuses on the mechanisms of regulation of pancreatic beta-cell function and their perturbations in type 2 diabetes. It was established at the Angus site in 2006 thanks to contributions from theCRCHUM , theUniversity of Montreal and theCanadian Fund for Innovation.
