When he first landed in Toronto, ON after a flight from his home city of Belgrade, Serbia, Milos Popovic’s main concern was where he was going to sleep that night.

“My situation was a little bit nuts,” recalls Milos, now a senior scientist and the associate director at Toronto Rehabilitation Institute. “I received the call from my supervisor telling me that my student visa is in the embassy and I should go and take it and come to Toronto in the next 24 hours or 48 hours.

“So I went, got my visa, bought a suitcase, filled my luggage, bought a ticket and flew the day after.”

Fast forward 26 years, and Milos now has a lab at Toronto Rehab’s Lyndhurst Centre, where his team is designing prosthetic systems that allow patients with paralysis to move again.

You are listening to UHN Home, where we're telling stories to mark Canada 150. Every week, we'll tell you the stories of people who came from all around the world and stories of people whose families have called Canada home for thousands of years. They all work at the nation's largest research hospital: the University Health Network.
