Dr. Haley Vecchiarelli (Haley V of Tremblay Lab) received a Fellowship Research Award from Women's Health Research Institute to investigate microglia’s potential contributions to the female bias in long #COVID neurological symptoms. Learn more at uvic.ca/medsci/news/cu…

With a recent NSERC / CRSNG Discovery Grant, Dr. Marie-Ève Tremblay (Tremblay Lab) & her lab are studying if dark microglia could remodel the extracellular matrix and lead to changes in behaviour & synaptic plasticity in the context of chronic stress uvic.ca/medsci/news/cu…

VBIS presented our research collaborations with the UVic Christie Lab at the Cridge Centre for Family's annual Survive, Strive, Thrive Conference! 🎉 We were so grateful for the opportunity to share our work and to listen to the inspiring talks from incredible survivors.

UVic Division of Medical Sciences’s Marie-Ève Tremblay (Tremblay Lab), Leigh Anne Swayne (Dr. Swayne), Jane Gair (Jane Gair) & Hector Caruncho (Hector Caruncho) are leading & fostering diverse #MentalHealth research activities in the UniversityOfVictoria Mental Health Research Cluster. uvic.ca/news/topics/20…

Thank you so much for sharing your story, Lisa Ridgway!

Marie-Ève Tremblay (Tremblay Lab) - who helps lead the Mental Health Research Cluster - & her lab study outcomes of lifestyle, environment, disease & more on microglia, the brain’s immune cells. Strategies that target microglia are considered one of the futures of #MentalHealth

Leigh Anne Swayne (Dr. Swayne) & the #SwayneLab investigate molecular factors underlying nerve cell connection stability, with key implications for several neurological disorders affecting #MentalHealth, such as Alzheimer's disease, COVID-19 & neurodevelopmental disorders.
