°®åś“«Ć½ā€™s is commemorating ā€œā€ (March 13-19) to promote the public and personal benefits of brain research. °®åś“«Ć½ā€™s Brain Institute, headed by molecular neuroscientist , Ph.D., represents a multi-million-dollar investment for interdisciplinary, cutting-edge neuroscience research across °®åś“«Ć½ā€™s multiple campuses. Inaugurated in 2016 on the John D. MacArthur Campus in Jupiter, Fla., the Institute supports research, education and community outreach among more than 70 neuroscience faculty investigators at °®åś“«Ć½ and its affiliate research centers. One of °®åś“«Ć½ā€™s four pillars that guide the Universityā€™s goals and strategic actions, the Institute seeks to unlock the secrets of brain development, function and plasticity and how the mechanisms uncovered can be compromised to drive devastating brain disorders.Ā 

From human behavior such as mother/infant bonding, addiction and communication disorders to devastating brain diseases like Parkinsonā€™s and Alzheimerā€™s disease, neuroscientists and other researchers from °®åś“«Ć½ā€™s Brain Institute are at the forefront of innovative research that will generate knowledge to benefit society.
