Hippocampal Diffusion Tensor Imaging in Parkinson's Disease and Associations with Non- Motor Symptoms
DownloadSpring 2023
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder and causes not only well-characterised motor symptoms, but also a host of non-motor symptoms that greatly impact quality of life. PD exists within a larger spectrum of disorders caused by the accumulation of Lewy bodies...

Hippocampal neuroplasticity and neurogenesis in major depressive disorder: a high field MRI study
DownloadFall 2012
The hippocampus is a brain structure responsible for memory, learning, and the stress response; it is also used as a model for major depressive disorder (MDD) in preclinical studies. Preclinical models have shown that the hippocampal subfields are differentially affected by chronic stress....

Identifying Major Depressive Symptoms and Major Depressive Episodes in Adolescents with Cancer
DownloadFall 2015
Cancer is the leading cause of death from disease among adolescents in Canada. Although cancer is a well-researched disease process in the medical and nursing literature, adolescence is relatively understudied, with minimal evidence on strategies to promote healthy emotional adjustment...

Investigating Human Brain Function and Human Brain Organization Using Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging at 4.7 T
DownloadFall 2020
Understanding the brain-cognition association has been a major goal of neuroscientists for more than 50 years. The discovery of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) contrast by Ogawa and colleagues (1990, 1992) has fundamentally transformed the field of...
