Dr. Van Lieshout is the Canada Research Chair in the Perinatal
Programming of Mental Disorders and the Albert Einstein/Irving Zucker
Chair of Neuroscience at McMaster University. He is an Associate
Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioural Neurosciences where he works as a clinician-scientist to develop and test interventions aimed at optimizing maternal perinatal health and offspring neurodevelopment. The aim of his work is to prevent or reduce the
severity of mental health problems across the lifespan.

Dr. Van Lieshout is very excited to have the opportunity to get to know
and contribute to the development of the extraordinarily bright and talented students that currently comprise McMaster's MD/PhD program, as well as the emerging clinician-scientists that hope to join us in the future. The flexibility afforded by our program combines with a world-renowned MD curriculum and a wide range of cutting-edge graduate programs, to provide medicine's leaders of tomorrow the training they need to successfully launch their careers.

Having just completed my undergraduate degree at McMaster, I am returning again to begin my MD/PhD studies in September 2012, conducting research in hematopoietic and leukemic stem cell biology under
the supervision of Dr. Kristin Hope in the Stem Cell and Cancer Research Institute. My primary research aims are to dually investigate the molecular regulation of HSC self-renewal and identify processes that
lead to leukemia transformation and progression in order to find novel treatments for such hematopoietic malignancies. In addition to conducting basic science research, my interests also broadly span the fields
of paediatric oncology, global health and medical humanities.

Branavan completed his undergraduate Bachelor of Health Sciences (Honours) degree at McMaster University. Through several summer studentships and project courses, he was exposed to several clinician/surgeon-scientists, which helped confirm his passion for career in neurosurgery and brain
tumour research. His doctoral research was completed under the supervision of Dr. Sheila K. Singh at
McMaster University's Stem Cell & Cancer Research Institute. Having identified an innovative treatment paradigm with high clinical utility for the most malignant pediatric brain tumor, medulloblastoma, Branavan's thesis provided evidence for a context-specific tumour suppressive function in signaling pathways that have traditionally been considered oncogenic. He has further demonstrated how stem cell pathways may be carried forward from ontogeny into oncology to drive the growth of the most malignant adult brain tumour, glioblastoma. He has been generously supported with a CIHR Vanier Canada
Graduate Scholarship along with additional research scholarships from the Brain Tumour Foundation
of Canada, American Brain Tumor Association, Mach-Gaensslen Foundation of Canada, and Alex’s
Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer.

Branavan's current interest is in innovative health systems by which oncology trials may be designed to study the genetic evolution of tumors throughout therapy, specifically in the case of brain metastasis. He
is also interested in the role of surgery in developing health systems in resource-limited or conflict regions.
In his off-time you can catch him at a Raptors game or training for his next marathon!

I attended high school at Highland Secondary School in Dundas and then spent the next four
years down thestreet at McMaster University's Arts & Science program. Through a research
opportunity in the program, I was introduced to the human microbiome, the microorganisms that inhabit the human body and play a pivotal role in health and disease. My doctoral research is supervised by Dr. Michael Surette and focuses on how the gastrointestinal microbiome behaves differently in response to the additives, pesticides, and plastics that
are commonplace in modern food production and, in turn, most diets. I am interested in determining if these food production compounds alter the microbiome to play a role in the onset and progression of chronic metabolic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. This research will identify environmental exposures through our diet that modulate metabolic health. This can provide evidence to inform policy at the
national and international level toimprove food production regulation and metabolic health.

Outside of school, I enjoy reading, cooking (also eating), hiking, and sometimes, it's even enjoyable being a Toronto Raptors and Blue Jays fan.

After completing my BHSc at McMaster in 2008, I joined the MD/PhD program to study mechanisms of allergic sensitization to food, particularly to peanut under the superperb mentorship of Dr. Manel Jordana. Peanut allergy affects ~1-2% of the North American population and is a severe food hypersensitivity in that, unlike many others, it is highly associated with anaphylaxis and typically not outgrown. My projects have taken me to work on how epithelia instruct for Th2 responses in in house-dust mite-induced allergic asthma and peanut allergy, for which I've been fortunate enough to be awarded a Vanier doctoral award from CIHR. Clinically, I have an interest in diseases involving the immune system, and look forward to my clerkship experience. I am actively involved in immunology curriculum development for the MD program.

I completed my BSc in psychology at Mount Allison University before joining the MD/PhD program at McMaster. Under the supervision of Dr. Michael Mazurek, I am investigating strategies to predict long-term treatment outcomes in response to antipsychotic medications. Recent evidence suggests that poor response to antipsychotic drugs can be predicted within the first 1-2 weeks of treatment. If physicians can identify non-responders early in treatment, then these patients could be quickly switched to another antipsychotic, minimizing the time that they are treated with ineffective medications. For this work, I have been awarded a CIHR Master's Award and an Ontario Mental Health Foundation Studentship

Elizabeth is studying the immunological mechanisms of allergy and immune tolerance in the laboratory of Dr. Mark Larché.  Prior to joining the MD/PhD program in 2011, she completed an M.Sc. supervised by Drs. Mark Larché and Param Nair examining the role of allergen in driving T-cell cytokine responses in asthma patients.  For her PhD thesis, she is investigating the use of peptide immunotherapy for the treatment of peanut allergy.   Clinically, Elizabeth is interested in immune-mediated pathology and the role of the immune system in health and disease.
