He听is the recipient of several awards, including the Bell Senior Fellowship in Mental Health, the FRQ-S Chercheur-boursier Junior 2 Salary Award and, more recently, the CIHR New Investigator Award. 听His main research interest is the neuroanatomy and neuroplasticity of limbic brain regions in major depression and suicide. Dr. Mechawar obtained his Ph.D. in Neuroscience at the Universit茅 de Montr茅al and joined our department as an Assistant Professor in 2007.听He is a successful researcher, supervisor, and teaches in several different departments. With Dr. Mechawar鈥檚 accomplishments as a researcher, teacher and supervisor, we feel certain that the Graduate Program will continue to thrive under his supervision.

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Marco Leyton who has diligently, creatively and effectively developed the Graduate Program as Director for over the past 10 years while simultaneously conducting invaluable research into neurobiology of drug self-administration, addiction and addiction-related neuropsychiatric disorders. Dr. Leyton鈥檚 leadership and commitment have led to the immense success of our graduate program and our department is very appreciative of his many contributions as professor, researcher and Graduate Program Director. 听We wish him much continued success as he continues his research 听as two-time William Dawson Research Chair, 听President-of the Canadian College of Neuropsychopharmacology (CCNP), and founding member of the Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) to the Canadian Center on Substance Abuse (CCSA), an advisory body to the federal Health Minister.
