Vincent Quoc-Huy Trinh is a researcher at IRIC and a gastrointestinal, hepatic, pancreatic, and molecular pathologist at the Centre Hospitalier de l’Université de Montréal. He completed his medical studies, pathology residency, and master’s degree in biomedical sciences at the Université de Montréal. As a McLaughlin Fellow, he completed a clinical fellowship at Vanderbilt University Medical Center and worked as a research instructor at Vanderbilt University.
Vincent Quoc-Huy Trinh’s main research interest involves the role played by fibroblasts and stellate cells in the tumor microenvironment of pancreatic cancer precursor cells. The study of progenitor cell populations during oncogenesis in other types of cancers will also be at the heart of his research program. By combining cutting-edge approaches in digital morphometrics, multiplex immunohistochemistry/immunofluorescence and single cell sequencing techniques, he will aim to redefine the diagnostic approach in pathology to help prevent tumor progression by specifically targeting those well-defined cell populations.
