Facilitating research collaborations on neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders such as Alzheimer's, autism, epilepsy, depression, and schizophrenia
The Center for Molecular Investigation of Neurological Disorders (CMIND) facilitates research collaborations among its researchers and across the university.
Research laboratories include state-of-the-art instrumentation for electrophysiology, imaging, molecular and cell biology, and behavioral analysis of mice.
Mission
The Center's mission is to use the latest and most appropriate tools to advance the understanding of molecular, cellular and system wide function of the nervous system, with special emphasis on mechanisms that regulate neural excitability, synaptic transmission and intracellular mechanisms of signal transduction that are relevant for understanding of neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders such as Alzheimer's, autism, epilepsy, depression, and schizophrenia.
