🧬 The PXI allows for the simultaneous measurement of all electrical contacts on our GFET chips and enables measurements using a gate electrode immersed in solution. In this case, electrical curves corresponding to buffer solutions as well as DNA strands are recorded.

🧬 June 12 marks the 11th Scientific Day of the Institute for Research in Immunology and Cancer (IRIC)! A fantastic opportunity to showcase research projects across the Institute’s labs and spark meaningful discussions around cancer research.

⚙️💡This past Thursday and Friday, we had the pleasure of attending the annual workshop of the Canada Excellence Research Chair in Light-Matter Interactions, led by Professor Carlos Silva Acuña.
Huge thanks to the organizers and all the presenters for such an inspiring and intellectually rich event!

✨ International Day of Action for Women's Health ✨ 
Meet Madline, co-founder of SensÈn — a Montreal-based startup on a mission to revolutionize breast cancer care! 🎗️ Her groundbreaking miniature electrical sensors are paving the way for personalized treatment for women worldwide. 
Bravo, Madline! 🚀💙

After completing a cooperative bachelor's degree in physics at the University of Sherbrooke🧑‍🔬
Paul moved to Montreal and began his master's degree in Delphine Bouilly's laboratory. He is co-supervised by researcher Carlos Silva, and his goal is to analyze GFETs using ultrafast spectroscopy. 🔬

Meet Jeanine ✨ 
Jeanine moved to Montreal in 2018 to study bioengineering at McGill and then joined the Bouilly Lab team to do her master's degree working on graphene Raman spectroscopy!

🎓✨ Congrats to Ryan, a student from the lab, who just submitted his master’s thesis!
A big milestone—your team is proud of you! 👏
All the best for your next adventure!

🎸✨ Jean-Nicolas, a rocker and researcher in the Lab, explores the potential of carbon nanotubes with the same passion as a blazing guitar solo! 🤘
🔬 His work pushes the boundaries of advanced materials.

Our lab was pleased to take part in the Québec Forum on Advanced Materials(FQMA) on May 1st and 2nd.
Thank you to the RQMP, CQMF, and PRIMA Québec for organizing such an inspiring event, rich in ideas and meaningful exchanges!
A big shout-out to Jade, Eve, and Jeanine for their poster presentations!

Did you know ?💡
Discovered in 1991, carbon nanotubes are tubes made of carbon 😉 that can exhibit incredible properties. For example, they are great electrical conductors, which is very useful for our research on biosensors!

🌟 Intellectual Property Day 🌟 

Let's honor Rosalind Franklin, the brilliant scientist whose research on DNA was crucial but unjustly attributed to others. 🧬✨

🌎🪴Earth Day! Our lab collects used gloves for future recycling, filters and reuses some solvents, unplugs unused equipment, and reuses most of our petri dishes! What are your sustainability tips in your labs?🔬

Eve began her training with a bachelor's degree in materials engineering and then did a research master's degree in biotechnology engineering. Since she wanted to apply the field of materials to healthcare, she is now pursuing a PhD in biomedical engineering, co-directed by Dr. Bouilly & Dr. Knapp.

Jade Cimmino started with a master's in the BouillyLab and fast-tracked to a PhD. She works on the the development of a biosensor for the detection of viral DNA mutations 🧬✨

Did you know that graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice? Its incredible structure makes it highly sensitive to its electrical environment, making it excellent for detection! It is also an outstanding conductor and can even be stacked to create new properties.

👩‍🔬👨‍🔬 Meet our amazing team of student researchers! From left to right: Jeanine, Ryan, Jade, Paul, Madline, Jean-Nicolas, and Eve. Stay tuned—we’ll be sharing their individual portraits in upcoming posts! 🔬✨ #ResearchTeam #FutureScientists #Innovation

👩‍🔬 Meet Claudia Bazan (Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry), our research pro!✌ At Delphine’s Lab since 2017, she now designs & optimizes nanocarbon FET devices for cutting-edge sensing & diagnostics.

L'émission sera également disponible en retapage sur OHdio!

🎙️ Allez écouter notre PI Delphine Bouilly qui passe sur les ondes de Radio-Canada 95.1 FM ce soir à 19h, à l’émission Moteur de recherche, animée par Matthieu Dugal. Elle répondra à la question : Comment les nanotechnologies nous aident-elles dans la recherche sur le cancer?

Our PI Delphine Bouilly (PhD in physics) opened the lab in 2017, to apply physics to medical tech and help research against cancer 🧬 To find out more about Delphine, please visit her researcher page on the IRIC https://www.iric.ca/fr/recherche/chercheuses-et-chercheurs-principaux/delphine-bouilly

International Women's Rights Day ✨🔬

Today, we celebrate the women shaping the future of science and technology. Their work pushes boundaries and drives innovation. Let’s support gender equality and build a more inclusive future!

#WomensRightsDay #WomenInScience #Equality

Welcome to BouillyLab! Our lab focuses on nanobioelectronics, developing graphene-based sensors for improving cancer detection. We are based at the Institute for Research in Immunology and Cancer (IRIC) at Université de Montréal.
