Bringing the best brain care to Edmonton
With such breathtaking advancements as incision-free brain surgery and Canada’s first Stroke Ambulance, the Brain Centre at the University of Alberta Hospital gives patients with serious brain and spine conditions their best chance ever to survive, and live healthy, productive lives.
Now, even more generosity is needed as our researchers and clinicians continue to pursue some of the most complex issues of our time, such as:
Support the Brain Centre Campaign
Learn MoreThe University Hospital Foundation’s Brain Centre Campaign has elevated brain care in Edmonton to a level that a decade ago was unimaginable. Yet there’s still more work to be done. Too many brain conditions are still without fast, accurate ways to diagnose, cure and prevent.
And without a fully re-constructed neurosciences intensive care unit, our medical teams will be stretched even more to provide life-saving care to thousands of brain patients each year who need nothing less to survive.
World-class brain care is only possible with support from people like you.
Help us keep the Brain Centre at the University of Alberta Hospital on the forefront of research, innovation and patient care. With the best people working together in the best environments, a new paradigm of brain care will unfold.

In terms of brain, spine and peripheral nerve conditions, there is virtually nothing we can’t do here in Edmonton.
