Coup de cœur- November 2025
Published on November 27, 2025
Le coup de cœur du mois November’s award goes to… (drum roll) Lynda Landry, Office and Administration Technician at IRIC!
Faithful to her post, Lynda systematically responds to all requests from the IRIC community: “Lynda is practically the face of the Institute, the one who welcomes everyone, who helps each and every one of us more often than not, even if it often means putting her own tasks on hold!”
In addition to being IRIC’s number one reference, “Lynda is known for her cheerful disposition and legendary interpersonal skills. Always ready to help others, she is generous and compassionate!”
Join us in honoring Lynda Landry!

Do you have a memorable anecdote related to IRIC?
At IRIC’s annual holiday party, I challenge myself to learn the first names of all the participants who introduce themselves to me during registration. Every year, I excel at my challenge!😉
In fact, on one occasion, I even danced on the Agora bar during a previous party!
What is your wish for the future of cancer research?
I would like the general public to be more aware of the importance of supporting research and to understand that it is the very essence of discovering new advances to better treat cancer. I feel that if the science outreach event “Dans les coulisses de la recherche contre le cancer,” organized at IRIC, could be held on a larger scale, it would be possible to garner greater financial support from people who are directly or indirectly affected by cancer.
