CIHR funding rate: 13.6%. Early 2000s: 30%+. Canada’s new $1.7B Impact+ program recruits talent — but without increased Tri-Council base funding, we risk further strain on an already stretched system. We’re calling for $1B over 5 years. Support here: tinyurl.com/33c5av46

Scientists at Canadian institutions have long punched well above our weight despite low and stagnant funding. Spending a billion dollars on external recruitment while science here is starving is exactly what Harper got wrong about supporting research excellence in Canada.

Canada’s new government is investing big to attract world-class talent in science and technology — and become an innovation powerhouse.

Excited to share with you our systematic review and meta-analysis on the cholinergic system in schizophrenia, just published in Molecular Psychiatry. 🧠

It was an honour to host the #CNRSP2025 in Ottawa, where researchers, clinicians, people with lived experience, and families came together, sharing a collective vision for advancing research and care in schizophrenia and psychosis. Thank you to our sponsors and everyone who made this event possible!

It was a pleasure to present today some of the work we do in the #CRANILab using digital technologies to better assess and treat cognition at the #HBHLSymposium2025. 🧠

💬 Our first #HBHLSymposium2025 panel session covered digital tools & their application/translation into the health system, with firsthand accounts by experts using innovative digital technologies in Quebec mental health care.✨ @synthiaguimond.bsky.social @umontreal.ca @douglasresearch.bsky.social

Hey #SOBP2025 attendees, be sure to check out @hollyshannon.bsky.social @synthiaguimond.bsky.social poster this afternoon! Holly used PCA to explore how brain regions associated with reward and social media behaviours cluster to predict domains associated w problematic social media use!

Say goodbye to future cures to all of the top diseases.

"The proposal would reduce the more than $47 billion budget of the NIH to $27 billion — a roughly 40 percent cut. It would consolidate NIH’s 27 institutes and centers into just eight."

Excited to take part in this event and discuss how digital technologies can help us better assess and treat cognition in our mental health system. 🧠 #DigitalMentalHealth
