Research Seminar - 'Doing PAR in Troubled Times' with Dr. Steven Jordan
Study tracks patients to better understand effects and possible treatments
December 1 is World AIDS Day, a time to raise awareness about a disease that has afflicted 70 million people worldwide, 35 million of whom have died as a result.
Researchers have linked a debilitating neurological disease in children to mutations in a gene that regulates neuronal development through control of protein movement within neuronal cells.
Two researchers at the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital (MNI) of 成人VR视频 have received funding to study a devastating neurodegenerative disease that first appears in toddlers just as they are beginning to walk.
MNI scientists will study stem cells, genetic mutations to develop new treatments
Researchers at the Montreal Neurological Institute of 成人VR视频 who are playing key roles in uncovering the mechanisms underlying ALS will share in $3.9 million in research funding, part of $4.5 million announced on Nov. 23 by the ALS Society of Canada in partnership with Brain Canada.
When two people smell the same thing, they can have remarkably different reactions, depending on their cultural background. Researchers at the Neuro have found that even when two cultures share the same language and many traditions, their reactions to the same smells can be different.
成人VR视频 will receive more than $1.1 million for CBRAIN, one of the world鈥檚 most advanced computing platforms for brain research, through the Canada Foundation for Innovation鈥檚 (CFI) Cyberinfrastructure Initiative.
成人VR视频 will launch an ambitious effort to advance understanding of the human brain and ease the burden of neurological and mental-health disorders, thanks to an $84 million, seven-year grant announced today under the federal government's Canada First Excellence Research Fund (CFREF).
Scientists at the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital have used a powerful tool to better understand the progression of late-onset Alzheimer鈥檚 disease (LOAD), identifying its first physiological signs.
Scientists have identified a gene in the French-Canadian population that predisposes them to the development of intracranial aneurysm (IA), a potentially life threatening neurological condition that is responsible for approximately 500,000 deaths worldwide per year, half of which occur in people less than 50 years of age.
Using genetic analysis, the team of researchers found rare variations of one gene, RNF213, that appeared more frequently in IA patients than in the control group. Both patients and the control group came from French-Canadian families.
In 听conjunction with Open Access Week and Homecoming, 135 years of 成人VR视频 graduate scholarship is now听available online!听Years in the making, the electronic thesis and dissertation collection now includes almost 42,000听open access 成人VR视频 theses and dissertations dating back to 1881. Theses and dissertations are searchable by faculty and department, degree, or subject听at听. To date almost 7,000 theses have been digitized representing almost a million pages.
You probably know someone who has it. It is the most common movement disorder, yet most people don鈥檛 even know its name.
Essential tremor affects nearly one per cent of the world鈥檚 population, increasing to four per cent of those over 40. The involuntary shaking of hands is the most common symptom, but symptoms can also include shaking of the head and legs.
The Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital (The Neuro) is pleased to announce a new initiative designed to ease the suffering of seriously ill patients through specialized consultation and comprehensive care.
The Susan Cameron Cook Neuro-Palliative Care Program, named in honour of Susan Cameron Cook, whose family provided vital seed funding for this initiative, has the goal of reducing the mental and physical suffering of neurological patients and their families in the journey from diagnosis of a terminal illness to end of life.
Dr. Guy Rouleau, Director of the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital at 成人VR视频 and the 成人VR视频 Health Centre, has been chosen to receive another major award recognizing his outstanding scientific career. The national organization representing Canadian francophone doctors, M茅decins francophones du Canada, is bestowing on him its 2016 Prix de l鈥檕euvre scientifique.
