The Institute is also active in conducting research and clinical trials, and specializes in virtual reality, telehealth, videogame virtual reality, and human-computer interaction research. IMI is actively working with world leaders who are experts in utilizing virtual reality, multimedia, computer-generated avatars, personal robots and other technologies to treat patients with both mental and physical disorders. IMI promotes education for healthcare providers, students, interns, and other trainees in the healthcare field. In addition, researchers at the Institute collaborate with experts in technical areas such as computer hardware, software, and graphics; biomedical engineering; communication engineering; and others. It also serves as a source of information, training, and assistance for professionals.

If you are interested in making a tax-deductible donation, please contact us. The UQO Cyberpsychology Lab is a research centre affiliated with both the University of Quebec in Outaouais (UQO) and the Pierre-Janet Hospital (Gatineau, Canada). The primary goal of the UQO Cyberpsychology Lab research team is to study the phenomenon of cyberpsychology from three main perspectives: fundamental (underlying psychological processes), clinical (therapeutic effectiveness) and applied (practical applications in psychology). Research in cyberpsychology naturally involves virtual reality, but it also extends to the remote implementation psychological interventions, in particular via videoconference (telehealth), where people meet in cyberspace to engage in activities that would otherwise be carried out in person.
