Who am I?
  

My name is Rene Mader and I am pharmacy student in the Faculty of Pharmacy at the University of Toronto.

I am a northerner, growing up in the small town of Spanish in Northern Ontario. Yes, this place does exist! You have to check it out sometime.
Research
  

I worked in Dr. Sylvia Asa's Lab at the Ontario Cancer Institute/University Health Network where I studied the development of the pituitary under the influence of fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 and its transcriptional regulation.
