Krembil is pushing forward.

The year 2020 witnessed tremendous global challenges. The COVID-19 pandemic changed lives around the world and transformed the way we work, learn and interact. Daily activities came to an abrupt halt for many. Science was thrust into the spotlight.

While research was forced to change dramatically, Krembil scientists continued to work with utmost dedication to pursue treatments for diseases of the brain, eyes, bones and joints. We have many exciting stories of progress to share.

This year’s Krembil Annual Report highlights a selection of our greatest achievements over the past year, including:
● identifying a marker of brain degeneration following repeated concussions
● revealing how a protein contributes to the development of brain networks
● discovering how immune cells in the joints differ between healthy individuals and those with arthritis
● advancing our understanding of COVID-19 and developing strategies and therapies to beat the disease
