The Centre for Brain and Mind Opens at UWO

The University of Western Ontario opened one of the world's premier research centres in cognitive neuroscience yesterday. Now, such diseases as schizophrenia, Alzheimer's, autism and others will be studied under one roof in a state-of-the-art facility.

The Centre for Brain and Mind unites researchers who were previously scattered around the campus and further leverages the university's longstanding expertise in the field.

The facilities include equipment such as one of the world’s most comprehensive biomedical imaging suites and one of only three 7T MRIs used for neurological use worldwide.
