Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital

Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital

The Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital is a unique academic medical centre dedicated to neuroscience. Here multidisciplinary teams of basic and clinical scientists generate fundamental information about the nervous system and apply that knowledge to understanding and treating neurological diseases. In 2007, the Canadian government named the MNI as one of seven Centres of Excellence in Commercialization and Research in recognition of our innovative and outstanding work.

With 11 research units closely integrated with clinical activities, the MNI is engaged in the full spectrum of contemporary neuroscience research and patient care. Among the MNI's internationally recognized strengths are the groups in Epilepsy Research and Treatment, the McConnell Brain Imaging Centre, Cognitive Neuroscience, Neuroimmunology, Complex Neural Systems, and Neuromuscular Disease. Extensive molecular and cellular biology is also carried out in the Centre for Neuronal Survival and the Cell Biology of Excitable Tissues Group, while researchers in the Brain Tumour Research Centre work closely with colleagues in the Neurosurgical Research group.
