Professor Joly is an internationally acclaimed figure in health law, intellectual property, and bioethics, leaving an enduring impact on the ethical landscape of modern medicine. With pivotal roles in the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) and the International Human Epigenome Consortium (IHEC), he has spearheaded the development and implementation of controlled access mechanisms in genomics research since 2009, influencing emerging models worldwide. With over 120 peer-reviewed publications, influential book chapters, and recognition such as the "Innovation Merit" award from the Quebec Bar, his influence extends to legal, ethical, and scientific domains. Testifying before esteemed bodies like the Council of Europe and the Canadian Senate, his expertise shapes genetic discrimination discourse. Inducted into the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences (CAHS), his current research navigates the intricate interplay of scientific knowledge, health law, and bioethics at the forefront of biotechnology and emerging health technologies.

Dr. Raquel Cuella Martin joined the Department of Human Genetics and the Canada Excellence Research Chair in Genomic Medicine as an assistant professor in August 2022.
Dr. Martin's current research employs large-scale precision genome editing to investigate the DNA damage response and its connection to human disorders. Her lab aims to integrate DNA repair and checkpoint control activities to prevent tumorigenesis and preserve cellular homeostasis. The lab also explores how precision genome editing can help understand disease-associated genetic variation and advance intelligent drug design.
