Publication covers (L-R): the 2018 Krembil Annual Report and the Krembil Brain Institute Magazine.

Two new publications were launched in October to promote Krembil’s relentless pursuit of new diagnostics and therapies for chronic debilitating diseases: the Krembil Annual Report and the Krembil Brain Institute Magazine. Both include a collection of stories describing our research and achievements, interesting facts and figures and eye-catching visuals.

Krembil Annual Report
The Krembil Annual Report highlights a selection of the Institute’s greatest achievements in the past year—in research, knowledge mobilization and translation, funding and recruitment. Research stories include:
•    discovering a cancer gene that contributes to stroke;
•    repairing damaged nerves using a microscopic ‘message in a bottle’;
•    identifying a therapeutic target that could help patients affected by a wide range of arthritic diseases; and
•    revealing how genetic tests could improve epilepsy diagnosis and treatment.

Krembil Brain Institute Magazine
In partnership with the Globe and Mail, Krembil published a magazine insert showcasing the groundbreaking science and world-class innovation happening at our Institute. This year the magazine focused on the struggles and successes of the Krembil Brain Institute’s researchers who are striving to develop new treatments for stroke, epilepsy, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, pain and concussion. Over 60,000 printed copies of the magazine were distributed across Canada.

Printed copies of both publications are available at the Krembil Directorate Office (room 4KD478, Krembil Discovery Tower).
