Education

Major participating academic programs at The University of Calgary include the Departments of Clinical Neurosciences, Psychology, Psychiatry and Radiology. Very strong and productive connections also exist with the Hotchkiss Brain Institute and with research trainee programs in Biomedical Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Medical Sciences, Neuroscience, and Physics and Astronomy, and with the research fellowship programs in Neuroradiology and the Calgary Stroke Program.

Since 1999, over 10 students have been awarded PhD degrees and over 20 students have been awarded MSc degrees for research conducted in the centre. Further, over 35 medical students and residents, and clincial/research and research fellows have received advanced training in imaging research. Our ‘graduates' are now establishing themselves in successful careers in academia and industry in Canada, the United States, Africa, Asia and Asia (see alumni). The majority of our research outputs (peer-reviewed papers, editorials, presentations at meetings) reflect the hard work of our trainees. Many of our trainees have also won significant awards for their resesearch.

Prospective graduate students and research trainees are invited to contact potential supervisors and to familiarize themselves with the our collaborating training programs:

• Biomedical Engineering (MSc, PhD programs)
• Calgary Stroke Program (Clinical research fellowship program)
• Electrical and Computer Engineering (MSc, PhD programs)
• Medical Sciences (MSc, PhD programs)
• Neuroscience (MSc, PhD programs)
