About Us

We are located at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Canada, where we are students and faculty members at the University. Some research associates, team alumni, and former students are now affiliated with other institutions and universities.

Eestablished in 1876, the University of Manitoba is the oldest university in Western Canada and the largest  in the province.  It is a comprehensive, publicly funded university with undergraduate and graduate programs in many disciplines. More than 24,200 undergraduate and 3,300 graduate students attend at the Winnipeg campus.

The Centre is an outgrowth of the first Milestones Study, which was started in 2001 by Warren Eaton, PhD, who is a Professor in the Department of Psychology. Since then many other students and colleagues have also contributed to milestones research and they are listed at the People link.

Our work has been facilitated by the contributions of many partners and supporters.
