The Arthritis Society of Canada has just announced the results of its 2021-2022 Training Award competition (https://arthritis.ca/researchers/competition-results), and Mathieu Mancini is one of the three recipients of a 3-year postdoctoral fellowship. His project entitled "From stem cells to mature immune cells: Passing on defects in rheumatoid arthritis" will investigate how early immune stem cells carry and transfer defects as they develop into mature immune cells that cause rheumatoid arthritis. Thanks to the Arthritis Society for this tremendous support to a very talented scientist!
This very exciting project is done in collaboration with Dr Inés Colmegna and Dr Ana Nijnik and is funded by a CIHR Project Grant.
