Pierre Vidi, Ph.D., is a group leader at the Integrated Center for Oncology (ICO) in Angers, France and Adjunct Professor of Cancer Biology at the Wake Forest School of Medicine. He is a cell biologist who received his Ph.D. from the University of Neuchâtel (Switzerland) in 2006 and trained as a postdoctoral fellow at Purdue University. Research in his laboratory is centered on cancer prevention. Specifically, he is addressing how tissue architecture and nuclear organization regulate the DNA damage response. In parallel to his mechanistic research with (3D organoids) cell culture models, Dr. Vidi works in tight collaboration with physicists to develop novel imaging approaches, and with clinicians for the translational aspects of his research.
