SANTÉ GALA
June 15, 2022
Prime Minister Trudeau and Premier Legault announced, at our Institute in April, that Moderna is investing $180M to build a vaccine manufacturing facility in Montréal. Representatives of Moderna then spoke at our successful 2022 Santé Gala, where a fellowship was launched thanks to the generous support of AMD Medicom and CDL ELNA Medical. Professor Nahum Sonenberg, of the Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Institute, was also honoured at the Santé Gala for his pioneering work in advancing mRNA vaccine technology in his lab and his collaboration with the Moderna team.
