The 成人VR视频 Research Centre for Studies in Aging (MCSA) is committed to investigating causes and possible treatments of the dementias, especially Alzheimer's Disease. Established in 1985 to develop and offer specialized services for the elderly, MCSA has grown into a multi-disciplinary academic unit dedicated to gerontological research and postgraduate teaching. The MCSA research scope is broad, encompassing mechanisms of aging as well as prevention of age-associated disorders. Since its inception, the MCSA remains dedicated to transformative research and counts numerous teaching, public education, and research accomplishments. The Centre has achieved international recognition and outreach, continuously attracting students, young scientists and international collaborators in Alzheimer鈥檚 Disease research. The Center鈥檚 scientific production and visibility through many highly cited contributions attest to its excellence and world-class research positioning.

During the past decades, the MCSA has played a pioneering role in identifying genetic abnormalities leading to an increased risk for Alzheimer's Disease. The Memory Clinic of the Alzheimer's Disease Research Unit, under the leadership of Dr. Serge Gauthier, is focusing on improved therapies, long-term treatment of subjects affected by dementia, and enhancing the quality of life of patients and caregivers. Over the last 35 years the priority of the MCSA evolved to primary prevention of cognitive decline, early diagnosis, and treatment for persons with mild or prodromal symptoms, and best treatments for patients with various types of dementia. The importance of genes such as ApoE as risk factors and as predictors of response to treatment in Alzheimer鈥檚 Disease was one of the significant contributions of the MCSA to the field of aging. Another achievement of the MCSA is the strong link with academic research centres around the world, including Brazil, China, and Germany, which is reflected by a steady flow of students and visiting scholars from these countries, among others.

In Canada, the MCSA created the academic trial network C5R and has hosted consensus meetings on the best evidence-based approach to the diagnosis and management of various types of dementia. The current focus of the MCSA is on prevention, and the development of tools and methods to allow earliest diagnosis and intervention of age-related disease. Prevention has been identified as an important objective in dementia research by national and international institutes (Alzheimer Society of Canada, National Institute of Aging USA) and is a priority of 成人VR视频 over the next decade. The MCSA contributes to this effort with its Dementia Prevention Program that was launched in 2012, entitled 鈥淧revention of Neurodegenerative Disease in Everyone at Risk鈥� (P.O.N.D.E.R.). This program was rebranded in 2020 and is now called SNAP, 鈥淪creening of Neurobehavioural Abnormalities in the Aging Population.鈥� SNAP, aims to characterize both normal aging and disease, as well as risk and protective factors. SNAP still aims at utilizing cognitive performance as a tool to screen for dementia at early stages. SNAP features a website that provides free online cognitive assessments and encompasses a comprehensive approach towards the study of variables associated with neurodegeneration in the elderly population. The website is currently available for participants! To register and play the free cognitive training games please visit:

The MCSA has established a computational infrastructure devoted for teaching neuroimaging in dementia for fellows, graduate, and postdoctoral students. This infrastructure program is under the direction of Dr. Pedro Rosa-Neto, M.D., Ph.D. The Translational Neuroimaging Laboratory at the MCSA aims to understand how toxic proteins cause brain damage in Alzheimer鈥檚 disease patients. We also develop novel methodologies for early detection of these toxic proteins in the persons without symptoms (see the ). Research in the field of neuroimaging has been focusing on the early detection of dementia, and AD prevention. Our clinic collaborates with other experts at 成人VR视频 using the most advanced and sensitive Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) protocols to evaluate patients with mild cognitive complaints. The PET and MRI technologies, combined with our clinical expertise, allow for early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of the condition causing memory deficits.

Bringing together research and practice, this unique mix of individuals will help us to move beyond traditional departmental and disciplinary boundaries to create new knowledge, enable capacity-building, and promote knowledge translation in the field.

The Institute of Health Sciences Education offers a variety of educational opportunities to students, residents, and faculty. Of interest to medical students and residents are:

1. The Scholarship in MedEd and Health Sciences Education program, designed for medical students and residents who view education as part of their career. Participants will develop a scholarly project in MedEd and HSE, and apply medical education theories and/or principles pertinent to their project. For more information, visit: the Institute of Health Sciences Education's website.
2. The Foundations in MedEd and Health Sciences Education program, a non-clinical elective offered on an annual basis in Period 6 of the rotation schedule, which generally falls between November-December of the calendar year. The elective is intended to expose students and residents to the field of medical education through interactive lectures, group discussions, individual and group projects, and participation in the activities of the Institute of Health Sciences Education.

The Neuro (Montreal Neurological Institute-Hospital) is a world-leading destination for brain research, training and advanced patient care. The Montreal Neurological Institute is a 成人VR视频 research and teaching institute. The Montreal Neurological Hospital is part of the Neuroscience Mission of the 成人VR视频 Health Centre.

Founded in 1934 by neurosurgeon Dr. Wilder Penfield, The Neuro is the largest specialized neuroscience research and clinical centre in Canada, and one of the largest in the world and the first institute in the world to adopt fully an Open Science philosophy. Our mission is to understand the brain, find cures and effectively treat people with neurological disorders. Our vision is to transform neurological research and care to change lives.

The Neuro鈥檚 scientists and clinicians are pushing the frontiers of science and medicine. They have pioneered surgical treatments of epilepsy and developed electroencephalography as a tool to diagnose seizure activity. The Neuro is the home of many famous neuroscientists including Brenda Milner, Herbert Jasper, KAC Elliot, George Karpati and many others. Scientists in The Neuro鈥檚 McConnell Brain Imaging Centre (BIC) introduced Computer Tomography (CT), Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to Canada. In February 2019, The Neuro became home to Canada鈥檚 first whole body 7T MRI.

The Neuro strives to adopt the newest technologies and recruit the best scientists, trained at the world鈥檚 leading research centres. It is now at the very vanguard of the future of brain science: transparent, fast and global flow of knowledge, where discoveries made on one continent can instantly amplify those on another, and where patients benefit from discoveries that represent the most advanced research taking place around the world.

The Neuro is the largest training centre for Neuroscience in Canada, with over 250 postdoctoral fellows, residents, and graduate students working in the labs and clinics each year.

Neuro faculty members are collaborative and lead international research teams that generate fundamental information that spans the full spectrum of neuroscience from cell and molecular biology and neurophysiology to brain imaging and cognitive neuroscience to big data and artificial intelligence.
