Adrien Peyrache and Stuart Trenholm will study epilepsy and vision
Two researchers from The Neuro are among just ten nationwide to receive Early-Career Capacity Building Grants this year from the Azrieli Foundation in partnership with the Brain Canada Foundation. Researchers Adrien Peyrache and Stuart Trenholm will study epilepsy and vision, respectively. The grants support early-career investigators who are conducting transformative research to advance understanding of the brain, in illness or health.
Dr Emily McDonald was appointed the Divisional Lead in Quality and Innovation within the Division of General Internal Medicine to develop and lead quality improvement and innovation projects. She will be investigating areas such as understanding the limitations of current clinical practices, improving patient experiences, patient outcomes, timeliness of care, streamlining and development of care pathways, value of care provided and laboratory or administrative processes.
Large international study will help select and categorize patients for better clinical trials
A large multi-centre study of more than 1,200 patients provides important predictors of Parkinson鈥檚 disease progression, which will allow better candidate selection for clinical trials and more effective therapy development.
Scientists prove difference between expected/actual outcomes cause reward response
If you love it when a musician strikes that unexpected but perfect chord, you are not alone. New research shows the musically unexpected activates the reward centre of our brains, and makes us learn about the music as we listen.
Scanner will deliver clear images of the nervous system in exceptional detail
Scientists will see the human nervous system in microscopic detail thanks to the installation of Canada鈥檚 first 7-Tesla whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner on Feb. 5.
A new study published in the prestigious Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, reveals a causal link between the neurotransmitter dopamine and the reward responses to music. The study was conducted by an international team including researchers from the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital of 麻豆社, the University of Barcelona, and the Hospital de Sant Pau of Barcelona.
