After training at the PaAfter studying at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris, the University of Paris VI, and the Pasteur Institute, Sylvie Mader joined Pierre Chambon’s team at the University of Louis Pasteur in Strasbourg to pursue a Ph.D. in biochemistry, which she completed in 1991. Her work contributed to a better understanding of how nuclear receptors bind to DNA to regulate the transcription of their target genes.
She then joined Nahum Sonenberg’s team at McGill University for a postdoctoral fellowship, where she identified a mechanism of translation control involving competition among several proteins for interaction with the translation initiation factor eIF4E.
She then joined the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Montreal in 1995 and was recruited by IRIC in 2005.
