Dr. Morgan Craig, Canada Research Chair in Computational Immunology, is a researcher at CHU Sainte-Justine’s Azrieli Research Center and Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Université de Montréal. Her laboratory (the Quantitative and Translational Medicine Laboratory) studies how the immune system responds to threats, and how differences between individuals affect these responses. To this end, she develops predictive and mechanistic mathematical and computational models to study the progression and treatment of cancer and viral infectious diseases from the perspective of immunity.

Roxane de la Sablonnière is a full professor in the Department of Psychology at the Université de Montréal. She is interested in the effects of dramatic social change on individuals and groups. She has conducted studies in Russia, Mongolia, Kyrgyzstan, in native communities and with immigrants. Her main research interests revolve around questions of social identity, social change, adaptation and well-being. She also co-founded the InterCom Project, which aims to offer concrete tools to young people and the public to foster resilience in the face of social upheaval.
