A brain or nervous system illness or injury will affect one in three Canadians in their lifetime. Autism, addiction, Alzheimer’s disease, depression, dementia, Parkinson’s disease, spinal injury, and stroke cost the Canadian economy billions of dollars annually. Understanding the brain and nervous system to address neurological and mental health disorders is one of the most pressing scientific challenges of our time.
