The Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Research Centre (GCRC) conducts internationally recognized fundamental and translational research in all areas of cancer. These research activities contribute to:

  1. improving the molecular understanding of cancer;
  2. improving disease management;
  3. training the next generation of cancer researchers; and
  4. conveying the importance of cancer research to the community.

The fundamental research approach adopted by the Centre is focused on better understanding the mechanisms involved in cancer initiation and progression and the pressing need to identify targets for clinical drug development. The research model involves identifying priority themes and establishing a critical mass of expertise within each theme. These themes include Breast Cancer, Metabolism and Cancer, Stem Cells and Signaling, DNA Damage Response, and Embryonic Development and Cancer.

About the Department of Physiology

About the Department of Physiology

Physiology has its roots in many of the basic sciences including biology, chemistry, mathematics, and physics, and overlaps with other biomedical sciences such as anatomy, biochemistry, microbiology & immunology, neurology, pathology, pharmacology, psychology, and biomedical engineering. Physiology is one of the prime contributors of basic scientific knowledge to the clinical medical sciences. Members of the Department of Physiology at 91ÉçÇø are engaged in studies dealing with molecules, single cells, or entire systems in a variety of vertebrates, including humans. A wide range of interest and expertise is represented, including:

  • biomathematics;
  • biophysics;
  • cardiovascular physiology;
  • endocrinology;
  • gastrointestinal and renal physiology;
  • immunology;
  • neurophysiology;
  • the physiology of exercise;
  • respiratory physiology.

The Department also has a rich graduate research program leading to either an M.Sc. or a Ph.D. degree, and is a participant in 91ÉçÇø's M.D.,C.M. & Ph.D. program.

Some faculty members have formal or informal links with the Departments of Mathematics and Statistics; Physics; Electrical and Computer Engineering; and Chemistry, and with clinical medical departments, reflecting and reinforcing the close ties between physiology and other disciplines.

Please see the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences' Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies section, and the Faculty of Science's Undergraduate section for more information.
