The arrival of a state-of-the-art magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner marks an important step in the construction of the future Brain Imaging Centre at the Douglas Mental Health University Institute.

The 2010 Douglas Institute research teams who were awarded grants from NSERC to pursue work in their respective fields of expertise.

Brain Imaging Centre > Inaugurated May 14, this is the first brain imaging centre in Quebec dedicated to psychiatry and mental health.

1) Mapping the hippocampus, its subfields and the memory network Our group has done significant work in the development of novel automated techniques for mapping the hippocampus and its subfields (Winterburn et al., NeuroImage, 2013; Pipitone et al.,

This conference is the largest and the most complete conference on this topic held in Canada since the IEPA in 2004.

The MGSS is made up of independent investigators, research associates, graduate PhD and MSc level students, and research collaborators.

The lab is interested in the effects of stress on the aging process and in individual differences in stress responsivity.

Natasha Rajah's research team uses brain imaging to examine the neural substrates of learning and memory in healthy young adults.  

Directed by Véronique Bohbot, PhD, the laboratory focuses on the multiple brain areas involved in processing episodic memories (spatio-temporal information) during navigation.

The Brain Imaging Center (BIC) offers researchers a platform to analyse brain imaging data from functional and structural neuroimaging techniques.
