Posted on | by Julie

The Lohman and Nguyen Labs at the University of Calgary and Hotchkiss Brain Institute are seeking motivated applicants for a post-doctoral position studying gliovascular, glymphatic and immune dynamics in models of brain injury and neurodegeneration (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis / ALS and Alzheimer’s disease / AD). Projects will involve in vivo multiphoton imaging of glia, vascular, perivascular and immune cells following traumatic brain injury and in neurodegeneration using genetically-encoded biosensors and optogenetic tools. The desired applicant will have experience in microscopy, with an emphasis on live cell and, ideally, in vivo cranial window imaging. The successful applicant will be expected to work as part of a team while managing independent projects. Dr. Alex Lohman’s research program focuses on repetitive, mild traumatic brain injuries during adolescence and the unique consequences on neuroinflammation using mouse and rat models. Dr. Nguyen’s research program investigates the pathogenic mechanisms underlying ALS and AD. The applicant will be further supported by Dr. Grant Gordon who has extensive expertise with in vivo cranial window multiphoton imaging and optogenetics. This position is funded through a CIHR Project Grant and Brain Canada Operating grant, but the successful applicant will be encouraged to apply for extramural funding opportunities.

Congratulations to 2025 Brain Prize winners Michelle Monje and Frank Winkler

Posted on | by Julie
2025 Brain Prize winners

Pioneering research into brain cancer is awarded the world’s largest brain research prize, The Brain Prize

Gliomas are types of cancers that arise in the brain and are extraordinarily difficult to treat. They are the leading cause of brain tumour-related deaths in both children and adults. Two pioneering scientists are awarded The Brain Prize 2025 for their discoveries that open up an entirely new way of thinking about and understanding these lethal diseases, and the potential strategies to treat them.

Copenhagen, Denmark, March 5th, 2025. Neuroscientists, Professors Michelle Monje (USA) and Frank Winkler (Germany), have made transformative discoveries by showing that neural activity in the brain can promote cancer initiation, growth, spread and treatment resistance. Thus, the everyday activity that takes place in the brain promotes the development of cancers within it. Striking recent studies further show that the influence of the nervous system is not limited to tumours in the brain, but also tumours throughout the body.

These remarkable findings have laid the foundation for an entirely new field of research called ‘Cancer Neuroscience’ that represents a paradigm shift in the understanding of these cancers, and which offers vital new opportunities for treatment.

Their efforts are rewarded with The Brain Prize 2025, the world’s largest award for outstanding contributions to neuroscience, established by the Lundbeck Foundation.

The Brain Prize 2025 worth DKK 10 million (€1.3 million) is awarded to:

Michelle Monje MD, PhD, the Milan Gambhir Professor of Pediatric Neuro-Oncology at Stanford Medicine and Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator,

and


Frank Winkler, MD, Professor of Experimental Neurooncology, Heidelberg University, Heidelberg University Hospital, Department of Neurology, and German Cancer Research Center

Congratulations to the winners!

Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute (“CHEO RI” https://www.cheoresearch.ca/) is the research arm of the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario – Ottawa Children’s Treatment Centre (“CHEO”) and an affiliated institute of the University of Ottawa. We acknowledge that Ottawa is built on un-ceded Algonquin Anishinabek territory. The Algonquin Anishinabek Nation have lived on this territory for millennia and we honour them and this land. Their culture and presence have nurtured and continue to nurture this land. CHEO RI also honours all First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples and their valuable past and present contributions to this land. CHEO is a beloved institution and workplace that is widely recognized for being an anchor in our community. CHEO RI works to create new knowledge and evidence to support CHEO in its provision of world-class care to our children. Our mission at CHEO RI is to connect exceptional talent and technology in pursuit of life-changing research for every child, youth, and family in our community and beyond.

We are inviting applications for an early to mid-career Ph.D. full-time Neuroimaging Scientist for the Precision Child Youth Mental Health Collaboratory. The goal of the position is to create an independent research program focused on neuroimaging markers of diagnosis, treatment response, or prognosis to support advancement of precision child and youth mental healthcare.

This will be a three-year, renewable appointment at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor commensurate with experience and does not confer eligibility for tenure. The successful candidate will be recommended for a faculty appointment in the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine and secondary appointments in other departments such as Psychiatry will also be available.

Required Qualifications: A Ph.D., superior research achievements in MRI neuroimaging related to child and youth mental health disorders, treatment response, or prognosis, evidence of interdisciplinary collaborations, experience in teaching and training of students at the graduate level, the ability to obtain external research funds, and excellent communication skills in either English or French. Passive knowledge of the other official language is considered an asset. Training in data analytics is also an asset.

The PCYMH Collaboratory is a ground-breaking research centre with close ties with SickKids in Toronto, ON, providing additional opportunities for networking and scientific development. The Collaboratory’s Strategic Priorities are to 1) Conduct Impactful PCYMH Research; 2) Use Technology to Deepen Understanding of Child and Youth Mental Health; 3) Nurture Teams That Translate Research to Real-Life PCYMH Care; and 4) Advance the Growth of PCYMH At Home and Worldwide. Expanding the extant neuroimaging research at the RI is one of our most important plans.

We are fully integrated within the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) with collaboration opportunities with clinicians and access to patients. CHEO is the home to a vibrant research culture including the leadership of national programs on rare disease gene discovery (http://care4rare.ca/), neuro-muscular disorders (https://neuromuscularnetwork.ca/) and Concussion research (www.transcendentconcussion.ca) CHEO also houses Newborn Screening Ontario (https://www.newbornscreening.on.ca/), one of the largest newborn screening programs in North America.

We are also fully integrated within the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Ottawa, which comprises several research-intensive Departments supporting a vibrant research and educational environment with multiple strong foci in multiple health-related fields. Relevant to this position, the associated Department of the candidate will confer MSc and PhD degrees in respective fields of study (for example, within the uOttawa Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine).
