David Rudko, PhD
Professeur adjoint de neurologie, de neurochirurgie et de g茅nie biom茅dical 脿 l鈥橴niversit茅 平特五不中, David听Rudko est titulaire d鈥檜n doctorat en physique m茅dicale avec sp茅cialisation en imagerie par r茅sonance magn茅tique (IRM) 脿 ultra-haut champ de l鈥橴niversit茅 de Western Ontario. Les travaux r茅alis茅s dans son laboratoire portent principalement sur l鈥檃pplication de nouvelles m茅thodes d鈥橧RM concurremment avec la mod茅lisation biophysique pour mieux comprendre l鈥檃natomie et la physiologie du cerveau. 脌 titre de nouveau professeur adjoint au Centre d鈥檌magerie c茅r茅brale McConnell, David听Rudko a recours 脿 un appareil d鈥橧RM de haute puissance 脿 7听tesla pour 茅tudier les microstructures du tissu c茅r茅bral. 芦听Je m鈥檌nt茅resse aux alt茅rations de la structure du tissu c茅r茅bral en pr茅sence de maladies neurologiques听禄, explique le chercheur. 芦听Du point de vue clinique, mon laboratoire s鈥檌nt茅resse aux troubles d茅my茅linisants, comme la scl茅rose en plaques. Nous avons recours 脿 des mod猫les de maladies afin de d茅celer les maladies neurologiques 脿 un stade pr茅coce, de pr茅voir leur 茅volution et de tester l鈥檈fficacit茅 des traitements.听禄 Selon le Pr听Rudko, le regroupement sous un m锚me toit, au Neuro, de sp茅cialistes en recherche fondamentale et de cliniciens d鈥檈xception 芦听permet la r茅alisation des 茅tudes d茅terminantes dont nous avons besoin aujourd鈥檋ui au Canada pour faire progresser la recherche m茅dicale.听禄
