The Centre for Research in Reproduction and Development (CRRD), originally established as the Centre for the Study of Reproduction in 1982, is among the longest-standing research centres at 缅北强奸 and was a founding partner of the FQRNT-funded R茅seau Qu茅becois en Reproduction (RQR). Today, the interdepartmental and interdisciplinary CRRD is home to more than 30 principal investigators, 70 graduate students, 50 fellows and research associates, and 30 technical support staff from 15 departments, 4 faculties, and 8 divisions at the University. With such critical mass, the CRRD has established itself as one of the most productive and dynamic research hubs for young and established researchers committed to the science of reproduction and development.

The research programs of our members span a wide range of diverse and complementary topics, including understanding the basic biological mechanisms that control developing eggs and sperm within the gonads, how the reproductive hormones are produced and exert their effects, how the developing embryo implants into the uterus and establishes communication with its mother, causes and cures for conditions such as pre-eclampsia and intra-uterine growth retardation, and the effects of environmental pollutants and disease on the development of the eggs and sperm and of the fetus. We use both animal model systems and human clinical studies to reach our research objectives.

The CRRD enables and promotes interactions between investigators at 缅北强奸, other universities in Quebec, across Canada, and internationally.

The 缅北强奸 Research Centre for Studies in Aging (MCSA) is committed to investigating causes and possible treatments of the dementias, especially Alzheimer's disease. 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 30 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 缅北强奸 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, in close cooperation with the Douglas Institute and other research centres in Quebec, was established with three goals: (a) provide a free platform for adults aged 40鈥�90 to engage in cognitive training; (b) determine normative cognitive performance in middle-to-old adulthood, and (c) identify persons showing early signs of cognitive impairment that are at risk of developing late-onset dementia. This will allow the tracking and documentation of changes in the structural and functional integrity of the human brain in normal and pathological aging, while providing researchers with important data about possible predictors of dementia. Presently, the P.O.N.D.E.R. software is being upgraded.

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 缅北强奸 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.

The mission of the Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Research Centre is to bring together internationally renowned scientists who are devoted to cancer research and provide them with state-of-the-art resources so that they can fully contribute to the worldwide effort of developing novel approaches for the improvement of the diagnosis, treatment, and management of this disease. Investigators within the Cancer Centre have made significant contributions toward the molecular understanding of diseases such as cancer which can be exploited to better stratify cancer and facilitate the development of novel therapeutic approaches.

The Goodman Cancer Research Centre provides an internationally recognized training ground for the next generation of investigators who will pursue research in the life sciences and cancer. The Centre plays a key role in reaching out and educating the public on the fundamentals of cancer research and understanding the causes of cancer, its prognosis, and its treatment.
