The success of the University of Ottawa Brain and Mind Research Institute depends on its partnerships.

Our partnerships

The success of the University of Ottawa Brain and Mind Research Institute depends on its partnership with: The Ottawa Hospital and the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, The Royal and The Royal’s Institute of Mental Health Research (IMHR), Bruyère Continuing Care and the Bruyère Research Institute, the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) and the CHEO Research Institute, as well as, Hôpital Montfort and Institut de recherche de l’Hôpital Montfort. Eight University of Ottawa faculties are involved as well—the faculties of Medicine, Science, Health Sciences, Education, Engineering, Art, Law and Social Sciences.

We are also building on our unique strengths in neurology, epidemiology, basic neuroscience and systems biology, fields that are crucial to mapping the complicated pathways that lead to disease.

Our affiliated hospitals and research institutes help to create productive relationships with medical research communities across Ottawa and around the world, to stimulate engagement with relevant scientists and clinicians and to support education and research across a wide range of neuroscience specialties.

We are building on the success of five highly respected research centres now associated with the University: the Parkinson Research Consortium, the Canadian Partnership for Stroke Recovery, the Centre for Neural Dynamics, the Eric Poulin Centre for Neuromuscular Disease, and CARE for RARE based out of the CHEO Research Institute.
