Brain injuries take many forms, including Aquired (ABI), and Traumatic (TBI). Both ABI & TBI can affect cognition, behaviour, and daily life — often long after the initial injury.

Research at the Brain Repair Centre is helping move understanding and care forward.
Awareness + research = better outcomes. Follow us for profiles on some of the researchers advancing brain injury research.

Dalhousie Engagement Days are an opportunity for faculty and staff to step back from the day-to-day and engage with colleagues from across the university on the roles we play in shaping the university’s future.

A sincere thank you to Naomi for stepping in to represent the BRC at this year’s event. The day featured a dynamic mix of presentations, interactive sessions, and collaborative workshops—designed to spark new ideas, share perspectives, and showcase the people and work driving Dalhousie’s impact in Nova Scotia, across Canada, and globally.
