Background

Biography

Justin completed his undergraduate degree at St-Boniface University in Winnipeg. He then went on to pursue his Ph.D in the Department of Physiology and Pathophysiology at the University of Manitoba under the guidance of Dr. Grant Pierce, studying the role of infection and stress responses in vascular remodelling. For his post-doctoral work, he joined the lab of Dr. Paul Kubes at the University of Calgary, using imaging modalities to study the behavior and function of the innate immune system during infection and injury. Collectively his work has contributed to 22 peer-reviewed papers, including in top-tiered immunology focused journals such as the Journal of Experimental Medicine and Immunity. His future program in cardio-immunology will focus on understanding how the immune system contributes to normal heart function and how it modulates the healing response in the heart following infection and/or injury.
