A recent feature article in University Affairs explains how a neurophotonics research powerhouse was developed at Université Laval thanks to the leadership and vision of brothers Paul and Yves De Koninck.

By promoting and facilitating collaborations among neuroscience, biochemistry, engineering and physics specialists, and by bringing them close to the hospital environment so they could better understand important issues of neuroscience research, the De Koninck brothers have constituted a world-renowned neurophotonics research team and centre.

Neurophotonics, which combines physics and neuroscience, will bring a better understanding of the brain and generate new tools to improve the diagnosis and treatment of brain diseases.
