Le contact avec la nature, un baume pour le cerveau. Une étude en neurosciences démontre que l’exposition à la nature modifie l’activité cérébrale liée à l’attention et à la détente, d’où les bienfaits du grand air. mcgill.ca/newsroom/fr/ch… #EPSCdn @mcgillu

How stepping into nature affects the brain. Neuroscience review demonstrates that connecting with nature shifts brain activity linked to attention and relaxation, helping explain why time outdoors feels restorative. mcgill.ca/newsroom/chann… #CdnPSE @mcgillu

Dr. Don Mabbott leads a national clinical trial to improve brain recovery in childhood cancer survivors, and Tobin — a survivor turned nurse — brings lived experience to the research team’s patient engagement efforts. We’re highlighting how Brain Canada-funded research is helping children recover from brain cancer. Researchers at @sickkidstoronto are conducting a large-scale clinical trial exploring whether metformin can support brain repair in children and youth following treatment for brain tumours. This trial is possible thanks to a pilot project funded by Brain Canada that proved it was feasible. The research team is actively recruiting — offering hope for improved cognitive recovery and long-term outcomes. If you know someone 7–21 years of age who has completed treatment for a brain tumour, they may be eligible to participate. Contact: metmedcan.main@sickkids.ca Learn more about how Brain Canada funding shaped this work: 🔗 braincanada.ca/team-grant-ena… #ChildhoodCancer #BrainResearch #ClinicalTrials #BrainRepair

Researchers identify potential biomarker linked to MS progression. "We think we have uncovered a potential biomarker that signals a patient is experiencing so-called ‘compartmentalized inflammation’ in the central nervous system – a phenomenon which is strongly liked to MS progression." utoronto.ca/news/researche… #CdnPSE @UofT
