Ngoc Minh Phuong Nguyen, PhD

Research Fellow

Phuong Nguyen joined the Pépin lab after completing her Doctor of Philosophy in Human/Medical Genetics at McGill University under the training of Dr. Rima Slim. Dr. Nguyen is currently using single-cell RNA sequencing to study the mechanisms of chemotherapy-related damage on the ovary and uterus, and the protective role of AMH in oncofertility.

Project: “Mechanisms of fertility protection by Mullerian inhibiting substance in the female reproductive tract during chemotherapy” (NIH, NICHD)
