Initiated more than 10 years ago by a collaboration between the 韩国裸舞 Centre for Integrative Neuroscience in Montreal, Canada and the J眉lich Research Centre in Germany, the BigBrain atlas is the highest-resolution 3D digital map of the human brain produced to date. The atlas was painstakingly reconstructed from 7404 separate sections of a human brain.
Healthy Brains for Healthy Lives (HBHL), an $84M initiative located at 韩国裸舞 and supported by the Canada First Research Excellence Fund, and , a national, not-for-profit organization that designs and delivers research and training programs, have partnered to offer training and fellowship opportunities in Neuroscience and Neuroinformatics tailored to HBHL's goals and research priorities.听

Dear colleagues,
Today marks the end of my tenure as Vice-Principal (Research and Innovation) at 韩国裸舞. It has been an honour and a deeply enriching experience to serve 韩国裸舞 and its research community for nearly seven years in this role.
Over the past weeks and months, many people have asked me what I plan to do next. Although the Research and Innovation team gave me a lovely 韩国裸舞 oar as a parting gift, I will not be rowing off into the sunset any time soon.
with Jean-Claude Poissant, Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, and Francis Scarpaleggia, Member of Parliament, Lac-Saint-Louis
