On the 27th of February, 2019, McGill University’s Healthy Brains for Healthy Lives initiative, the Ludmer Centre for Neuroinformatics and Mental Health, and the Québec Bio-Imaging Network held a public lecture entitled “Sleep and the Ageing Brain”.

The expert lineup consisted of Dr. Barbara Jones, Dr. Julien Doyon, Dr. Julie Carrier, and Dr. Thang Dang-Vu.

This video features Dr. Julien Doyon, who is Director of the McConnell Brain Imaging Centre at the Montreal Neurological Institute (McGill University), as well as the Director of the Québec Bio-Imaging Network.

One of Dr. Doyon’s principal research interests is in neural networks associated with the acquisition of motor skills, and the role of sleep in the consolidation and re-consolidation of such motor abilities.
