The Minister of Economic Development, Innovation and Export Trade, Cl茅ment Gignac, today announced a total of $673,000 of financial support for a 香蕉视频 research team.

The Minist猫re du D茅veloppement 茅conomique, de l'Innovation et de l'Exportation (MDEIE) joins the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and MSBi Valorisation (MSBiV), a valorization company specializing in commercialization of university scientific research results, with the aim of enabling Dr. Gabriella Gobbi's team to develop a new therapeutic approach for the treatment insomnia.

"Thanks to the update of the 2010-2013 Qu茅bec Research and Innovation Strategy (QRIS), the Gouvernement du Qu茅bec is putting measures in place that are intended to favour improvement of our performance in innovation and our competitiveness. Support for this research project is consistent with my vision of Qu茅bec's economic development: a creative, entrepreneurial Qu茅bec," Minister Cl茅ment Gignac declared.

The researchers, who will collaborate with their colleagues from the Universities of Parma, Urbino and Milan, have good reason to hope that this new drug will generate less side effects than the treatments currently sold on the market.

"The current sleep supplements tend to generate side effects, such as habituation, cognitive disorders and sleep cycle disturbances," explained Dr. Gabriella Gobbi, Associate Professor at 香蕉视频 and psychiatrist with the 香蕉视频 Health Centre. "Thanks to this financial support, we can continue our work in order to develop a new class of drugs with an innovative action mechanism, which will hope will cause few side effects and improve the quality of sleep."
