Julie Loiselle - Postdoctoral Fellow
Julie joined the Adamo team in July 2018. Her current research project focuses on determining the molecular mechanisms through which physical activity during pregnancy influences placental health. She is particularly interested in determining how physical activity may influence the epigenome and transcriptome of the placenta, and consequently placenta cellular health. Julie completed her MSc and PhD at Laurentian University under the supervision of Dr. Leslie Sutherland, where her research identified a complex relationship between two cancer-associated RNA binding motif proteins, RBM5 and RBM10. Julie is a member of the RNA Society’s Junior Scientists Committee and most enjoys spending time with her family, particularly her husband and two wonderful boys. Julie currently holds the uOttawa/CHEO-RI 2018 Post-Doctoral Fellowship - Advancement of Biological Perspectives for Exercise Interventions across the Lifespan and is excited to be part of the dynamic Adamo team. Julie can be reached at jloisell@uottawa.ca. |
Jayonta Bhattacharjee - Postdoctoral Fellow
Jayonta joined the Adamo team in August 2018. He obtained his DVM and MS degrees from Bangladesh Agricultural University. He received his Ph.D. from the School of Molecular and Cellular Physiology, Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of Siena, Italy researching on ‘Expression and role of ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 in human placenta’. He completed his first Postdoctoral fellowship with CIHR Canada-HOPE scholarship at The Lunenfeld Tanenbaum Research Institute (LTRI) at Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto. At LTRI, he worked on the elucidating the role of Mcl-1 in the regulation of placental cell fate. His passion for research includes placental health, maternal-fetal health and reproductive biology. Jayonta has a unique blend of clinical and scientific skills that lend well to research in this multidisciplinary field. He is excited to contribute to new research findings as part of the dynamic team of the Adamo Lab.

Shuhiba Mohammad - Ph.D. Candidate
Shuhiba joined Dr. Adamo's team in January 2017 to continue her passion for understanding how the placenta influences fetal programming and impacts health for a lifetime. She completed a MSc in Experimental Medicine ('16) under the supervision of Dr. Anne Croy at Queen's University (Kingston, ON). Her thesis sought to examine the pathogenesis of Salmonella infection during pregnancy using a mouse model. Inspired by the fascinating roles of the placenta in fetal development, she joined Adamo Lab hoping to understand how physical activity impacts placental biology. Like many Adamo lab members and alumni, she studied at the University of Guelph (MBS '13 & BSc majoring in Biomedical Science '12). She also enjoys volunteering for Let's Talk Science within the local Ottawa region and listening to CBC radio shows. Shuhiba is a recipient of the Faculty of Health Sciences uOttawa/CHEO Doctoral Fellowship for Advancement of Biological Perspectives for Exercise Interventions Across Lifespan (2017-19) and the Ontario Graduate Scholarship (2017-18, 2019-20).
