About the Center

The rapid advancement of knowledge, insights and approaches through research can only be achieved through the commitment, excellence and dedication of researchers from all backgrounds. We know that integrating different viewpoints, scientific ideas and perspectives enrich our research community and enhances our ability to attract and retain the world’s best researchers and staff, as well as create a productive work environment where we can all thrive. We, therefore, commit to creating and fostering a work environment that will support training, career development, pay equality and equitable work space for all.

The Center for Neuroscience Research comprises an expanding group of highly productive lab-based developmental neuroscientists and clinical investigators who have established strong research programs and collaborations in the area of neurodevelopmental disorders. While these investigators have distinct expertise and research programs, their research as a whole is focused on childhood neurological disorders, from early stages of when the nervous system is first established, to postnatal stages that include the formation of neuronal connections and the wrapping of neuronal processes by the myelin insulation. The unique and exciting setting of the Center has supported and promoted a large number of research projects that span basic, translational and clinical research in neurodevelopmental disorders.
