The Brain Health Research Institute (BHRI) is a collaborative effort that taps passionate faculty members from across the university – not just in science-based departments, but also in social sciences, the arts and humanities – to bring together their unique strengths as they collaborate to solve brain-related challenges. The institute is the epicenter of innovative training for undergraduate students, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in an environment that combines hands-on access, mentorship, resources and opportunities.
