Since its debut in 2015,

the St-Pierre Lab has endeavored to develop tools that accelerate biomedical research.

We are currently situated in the Baylor College of Medicine department of Neuroscience -- a flourishing research hub conveniently enveloped by the largest medical center in the world -- that has been making top-five rankings for NIH Funding since 2018.
