Cole Libner PhD
Summer Medical Student with Dr. Levin

Cole was born and raised in Saskatoon where he went on to study at the University of Saskatchewan. In 2018, he graduated with great distinction receiving a Bachelor of Science degree majoring in Anatomy and Cell Biology. It was during his undergraduate studies where he found his passion for the biomedical sciences with a specific interest in neuroscience. In the summer of 2018, Cole was granted the opportunity to join Dr. Levin’s MS research team as a graduate student. Combining the high rates of MS in Saskatchewan with his interest in neuroscience made the decision to research MS an easy one. Cole's PhD project focused on how autoantibodies can cause neurodegeneration in an animal model of MS. Based on his work, Cole received the prestigious CIHR Frederick Banting and Charles Best Canada Graduate Scholarship. Outside of the lab, he enjoys travelling as well as a number of activities. In the summer, he enjoys fishing, golfing and camping while in the winter he likes to snowboard and play hockey. Cole defended his PhD in the summer of 2022 and is currently attending medical school at the University of Saskatchewan. Being a physician has always been the ultimate goal for Cole, but with his newfound knowledge, skills and passion for MS research, he hopes to peruse a new dream of being a physician-scientist.
