- As a research-only MRI facility, we cannot provide any diagnostic scans. You would have to get in touch with your healthcare provider to receive a brain MRI.
- You may obtain a referral for a diagnostic brain MRI chosen by your family physician.
- If you are a student, you may make an appointment to see one of the Student Health Centre doctors.
- For medical emergencies, please find your nearest hospital and visit the emergency department.
Support Us
Donate to support
The University of Toronto has established a dedicated ToNI fund you can donate to online directly via this U of T Engage Donation Page. Your contribution will enable ToNI to maintain its status as a leading human neuroimaging facility by
- investing in upgrading the MRI hardware and software to the next generation of scanners
- augmenting our scanning environment with additional equipment to make scanning more accessible and robust for a wider range of participants
- providing students with training on the scanners — now a prerequisite for securing a graduate school placement, and essential for developing the skills and experience in high-demand in the scientific knowledge industry
- recruiting post-doctoral fellows (recent PhDs) to work on fMRI-based research projects with our faculty
- seeding potentially high-risk, experimental projects not yet eligible for grants by federal and provincial agencies
Thank you so much for your support!
