Caution! This message was sent from outside the University of Manitoba. [cid:image001.jpg@01DB7BED.3C911BD0] Dear Colleagues, As we begin planning the upcoming Manitoba Neuroscience Network seminar series, we would greatly value your input on potential speakers. If you have suggestions for outstanding scientists whose work would be of broad interest to our community, please share their names, affiliations, and a brief description of their research focus. We welcome nominations from across the spectrum of neuroscience-from fundamental discovery science to translational and clinical research. Your recommendations will help us assemble a diverse and engaging program that reflects the depth and breadth of neuroscience in Manitoba and beyond. Please send your suggestions by September 12, as we aim to finalize the roster by the end of September. With best regards, Tabrez J.

Mentorship Opportunity : High School Science Fair Project Researching Anti-NMDAR Encephalitis
by Protiti Khan 28 Jul '25

28 Jul '25

This email was sent on behalf of Dr. Kaarina Kowalec who is looking for MNN researchers willing to mentor high school students from Sisler High School with the following neuroscience project: On Jul 25, 2025, at 22:01, Bridget Sankovic <bsankovic(a)wsd1.org> wrote: Caution! This message was sent from outside the University of Manitoba. Good evening, I am reaching out to you in the hopes you can assist me in helping two students who are self-motivated, and enthusiastic about science. They would like to pursue a science fair project and would require research information and mentorship. Please see an excerpt from the student’s email below: Our idea for the project is centered around Anti-NMDAR encephalitis, specifically exploring how it affects the growth and development of adolescents, or how antidepressants help with the after-effects of suffering from it. These topics are complex, and we're very interested in them. We haven't started working on the project yet, but we're hoping you might know of biology labs, university instructors, or researchers specializing in neurology, immunology, or pharmacology. Their advice or resources would be invaluable as we begin to execute our project. We're especially interested in understanding practical research methods and data sources. If you can help us, or direct me towards someone who could, that would be greatly appreciated! Regards, Bridget Sankovic B.Sc., B.Ed., PBDE Gr. 10-12 Science Department Head Sisler High School Ph: 204-589-8321 Please contact Dr. Kowalec if you are interested. Ms. Protiti Khan, M.Sc.

It was wonderful to see our members present their research, engage in thoughtful discussion, and come together as a community. I am especially grateful to Drs. Eftekhar Eftekharpour and Renee Douville for their leadership in organizing the event. I also want to thank our poster judges for their valuable time, and to acknowledge the contributions of every presenter and participant. Your engagement brought depth to the discussions and highlighted the breadth of work being done across our network. I am equally thankful to our sponsors, whose continued support helps sustain our shared efforts. As we move forward, I encourage all members of the network to take part in upcoming activities, including seminars, advocacy, and outreach. The strength of our community depends on the active involvement of its members. Best wishes, Tabrez J.

Opportunity to host Master's research project students from France
by Chris Anderson 13 Jun '25

13 Jun '25

Dear Colleagues, Many of you will have heard that several biomedical sciences departments are getting together to propose a new Master of Neuroscience. This will be a dual degree offered by the UM and the University of Strasbourg in France. We are aiming for the first official enrollment of students on the UM side for September 2026. This is mostly a course-based program, unlike existing thesis-based MSc programs. One of the hallmark features will be student mobility between the two universities for the purpose of completing a 6-month research project. Each year between January and June, 12 students from Strasbourg will be placed in labs at the UM. This is the final degree requirement. The first 12 students are expected in Manitoba in January 2028. However, we and our Strasbourg partners would like to roll this process out gradually between now and then. Accordingly, we are looking for a few Principal Investigators who would like to host a project student from Strasbourg between January and June 2026. There will need to be a defined project and mentorship provided. Each student will need to prepare a final paper and defend it. They call this a thesis in France. We would call it a major research paper. By the time they arrive, students will have received the equivalent of 4.5 credit hours of hands-on neuroscience laboratory instruction in Strasbourg and 40.5 credit hours of diverse course instruction in the neurosciences. You will not need to pay a stipend for these students during this phase. If you have any questions or would like to host a student in January 2026, please email me. Thank you for your help.
