Values Providing an environment where academic neuroscience research can be performed with the goal of advancing therapies for Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and related disorders. We aim to do the finest and most detailed scientific basic research with the perspective of translating these findings into relevant therapeutic gains for patients in need. This environment therefore provides cutting edge research for clinicians and scientists, training opportunities for students and fellows and an advanced technical capacity to investigate new leads for discoveries. Serving as an academic research center by educating students and research staff in neurobiology and towards professional values of medical sciences and to whenever possible facilitate public awareness of this research and the new information it provides. Interacting with other research teams and centers, universities, patient groups and governmental agencies as well as biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry, to maximize the therapeutic benefits of this research. Goals Moving neuroregeneration research forward. Translational medicine for aging and neuroregeneration. Technology breakthroughs and collaborative platforms. Scientific training and outreach.
