My research is focused on health service delivery for individuals living with dementia in rural and remote settings.  In collaboration with rural primary healthcare teams we have designed and implemented interdisciplinary rural primary health care memory clinics for assessment, diagnosis, and ongoing management of dementia. Clinics are operating in four rural communities with another implementing a clinic this fall, with plans to continue scaling up.  We are evaluating patient and family perspectives, impact on quality of life, and impact on use of best practices by health care providers.

Masters, PhD

The long-term goal of research in the Levin Lab is to better understand the cause of neurodegeneration, a salient feature and cause of permanent disability in progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. For over 20 years, we have studied the function of RNA binding protein heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (‘A1’), with a focus on ‘M9’. M9 is A1’s nucleocytoplasmic transport domain and is required for transport of A1 between the nucleus and cytoplasm. Using molecular, in vitro and in vivo techniques, we examine potential mechanisms of neurodegeneration in MS resulting from A1 dysfunction caused by mutations within and autoimmunity against M9.

Research Events

Dept. of Medicine Research Lunch & Learn Series

Upcoming events:

  • Summer Research Data Management (RDM) Program

    The University Library, the Office of the Vice President Research (OVPR), and the Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE) have partnered to offer a RDM training program for students, research staff, and their supervisors. The Summer RDM Program presents a unique opportunity to upskill students and staff to adopt RDM best practices into their work as well as comply with the new Tri-Agency policy. This program will also benefit supervisors by familiarizing them with Tri-Agency RDM policy which may apply to their future grant applications.

    Completing this program would count towards a student’s hours as part of the SURE program. Staff who complete this program will receive a certificate of completion that can be added to their CVs.

    There will be two program components:

    • How to Manage your Research Data (week of 13 May)
    • How to Create a Data Management Plan: A Workshop (Week of 20 May)

     

    Please register your students/staff here by May 6. For any questions, please contact Kevin Read at kevin.read@usask.ca.


Recordings of previous events are available on the Department of Medicine's research Sharepoint site. 

Faculty Research Day

The next faculty research day will be held on Friday, May 3, 2024.
