Garnette Sutherland completed his residency in Neurosurgery at the University of Western Ontario and went on to hold a position at the University of Manitoba in the Departments of Surgery and Pharmacology. He established a laboratory dedicated to the study of neurological diseases through MR imaging spectroscopy. In 1993, he was appointed head of the Division of Neurosurgery at the University of Calgary. Collaborating with NRC-Canada, Sutherland developed the world’s first intraoperative MRI system utilizing a movable 1.5T magnet, which was later upgraded to a 3.0T system. His work in medical robotics led to the creation of the neuroArm system, a MR-compatible robotic system used for neurosurgery, and he has received several accolades for his contributions to healthcare innovation, including the Order of Canada in 2011 and the NASA Highest Technology Achievement Medal in 2015. He has published over 190 scientific manuscripts and holds 15 patents. His research interests include advanced robotics technology, brain tumours, cerebrovascular disease, and the development of smart surgical tools and virtual reality simulations for surgical training.
