Problems encountered in the clinic inspire research and new findings from the labs are directly applied to patients’ needs. The integrated model is a hallmark of the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital – The Neuro, at ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ University and the MUHC and is now being replicated worldwide. Two clinician-scientists at The Neuro have been awarded grants today to further research on Parkinson’s disease and HIV/AIDS. </span></span></p> Tue, 05 Feb 2013 21:44:34 +0000 webfull 94554 at /channels Unleashing the watchdog protein /channels/news/unleashing-watchdog-protein-226719 <h3>Research opens door to<b> </b>new drug therapies for<b> </b>Parkinson’s disease</h3> Thu, 09 May 2013 18:38:16 +0000 webfull 96637 at /channels Quality control of mitochondria as a defense against disease /channels/news/quality-control-mitochondria-defense-against-disease-232521 <p>Scientists from the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital in Canada have discovered that two genes linked to hereditary Parkinson’s disease are involved in the early-stage quality control of mitochondria. The protective mechanism, which is reported in <em>The EMBO Journal</em>, removes damaged proteins that arise from oxidative stress from mitochondria. </p> Tue, 21 Jan 2014 16:27:27 +0000 webfull 100769 at /channels MNI scientist receives $1.5M grant for Parkinson's/ALS research /channels/channels/news/mni-scientist-receives-15m-grant-parkinsonsals-research-265527 <p><strong>CQDM and Brain Canada join forces again in the funding of two new research projects to address unmet needs in brain research</strong></p> <p>CQDM and Brain Canada are proud to announce the funding of two new multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional research projects under the second edition of their Focus on Brain strategic initiative.
