One in three people will suffer from a brain disorder during their lifetime. The other two thirds will suffer right along with them. At The Brain Institute at the University of Utah, we're doing something about that. The Brain Institute was born in 2005 with the vision and support of the University of Utah leadership. More than 100 scientists, researchers, practitioners, and administrators are dedicated to advancing the mission of The Brain Institute. Every one is committed to work that will have a lasting impact on the lives of virtually millions of people. In a short period of time, many nationally and internationally recognized experts have embraced the goals of The Brain Institute, and have joined the team to further their research and development in the following areas:
As a hub of genetic research in the U.S., Salt Lake City and the intermountain area provide a unique benefit to The Brain Institute: a receptive environment and many established centers that can support and supplement the initiatives of The Brain Institute. That, combined with the innovative and high tech slant of the population (which boasts one of the highest education levels in the country), provides The Brain Institute with the perfect home and resources to lead the country - and even the world - in the research and understanding of every type of devastating brain disorder. |
