BrainsCAN
What is BrainsCAN?
Western’s BrainsCAN initiative was created in 2016 to radically transform brain research. Under this initiative, world-renowned cognitive researchers are working together to modify how brain disorders and diseases are understood, diagnosed and treated. BrainsCAN research projects are taking place across numerous departments, facilities and institutes at Western.
