Dr Adrian Owen is a Professor at The Brain and Mind Institute, Western University, Canada and the former Canada Excellence Research Chair in Cognitive Neuroscience and Imaging.
Our research combines neuroimaging (MRI and EEG), with cognitive studies in brain-injured patients and healthy participants.
We study patients who have sustained brain injuries that result in disorders of consciousness. We also study patients with neurodegenerative diseases in order to understand more about the causes and consequences of the memory, perception and reasoning problems that many of them experience.
Finally, we develop web-based tools for the assessment of cognitive function, both in healthy participants and in patients with disorders of the brain.
Western University's BrainsCAN initiative, received a substantial $66 million investment from the Canada First Research Excellence Fund (CFREF) – the largest research grant in the university's history – providing a significant boost to ongoing research in cognitive neuroscience and imaging at Western.
The grant will improve understanding of disorders such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, traumatic brain injury, and schizophrenia.
