Scientists discover immune cells have a ‘sense of touch’
A McGill University-led study has uncovered a previously unknown ability of T cells that could change our understanding of how long-term immunity develops.
Scientists have long believed that tissue resident memory T cells – which remain in tissues after an infection has cleared and respond rapidly if the threat returns – are shaped primarily by biochemical signals.
Youth mental health program saves nearly $10 for every dollar invested
An innovative youth mental health service model can improve care and ease pressure on Canada's health-care system, a new study led by researchers at McGill University and the Douglas Research Centre demonstrates.

Reducing vehicle emissions could prevent thousands of deaths in Canada
A shift to cleaner transportation could prevent more than 3,600 premature deaths in Montreal and Toronto by reducing ultrafine particle pollution, finds a new study led by McGill researchers.
Ultrafine particles (UFPs) are microscopic pollutants produced in large quantities by vehicle exhaust. Because of their small size, they can penetrate deep into the lungs and bloodstream and may contribute to serious health problems such as heart and lung disease.
122 McGill research projects awarded $30 million in NSERC Discovery Grants funding
Funding supports bold ideas across natural sciences and engineering disciplines at McGill, in fields ranging from ophthalmology and physics to music research and electrical engineering. The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) has awarded 122 McGill research projects funding from its Discovery Grants competition for a total investment of $30 million.
Gambling addiction treatment underused in Quebec, study finds
A new study finds public specialized gambling addiction treatment services are underused in Quebec, pointing to a need to better reach people with gambling disorder.
Researchers at McGill University and the Douglas Research Centre followed more than 2,300 people with a gambling disorder over 13 years. Despite free access, patients averaged fewer than two treatments during that period.
