The Innovation Division is committed to creating a collaborative ecosystem that fosters the development of breakthrough neuro-medical technologies. By bringing together staff, students, and leading experts from both academia and industry, we enable the seamless generation, evaluation, and application of innovative ideas. Our programs focus on empowering individuals to navigate every stage of the innovation process from ideation to implementation while cultivating a direct bridge between research and real world impact. This unique approach not only advances scientific discovery but also supports regional economic growth and healthcare accessibility.
At the core of our center is a relentless commitment to nurturing an entrepreneurial spirit, a trait reflected in the dedication of our people and the vibrant culture of continuous evolution we promote. Every member of our team plays a vital role in ensuring access to the spaces, mentorship, and tools required to transform visionary ideas into tangible solutions. We also administratively support related research units and the wider entrepreneurial and innovation community, helping cultivate a safe and transparent environment where collaboration between industry, academia, and government can thrive.
Innovation that bridges the gap between anticipation and reality!
Our mission is to improve global health by overcoming the obstacles that stand in the way of neuroscience innovation. By integrating technical, scientific, and management expertise within interdisciplinary teams, we address the most complex challenges facing the field. The division leads multidisciplinary research and educational initiatives with a focus on real world outcomes bridging gaps between basic science, clinical interventions, and effective models of care. Supported by industry consortia, government grants, and foundation funding, we provide essential resources for staff, students, and the broader community of innovators.
Our vision for the Innovation Division is anchored in three objectives: establishing a world-class scientific research organization aligned with our strengths in Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience, Molecular and Cellular Neuroscience, and Clinical Neuroscience; providing state-of-the-art technological infrastructure that supports both innovation and talent development; and enhancing the impact of fundamental research through interdisciplinary collaboration. By fostering these priorities, we are building a dynamic, research-driven space where new standards in neuroscience are established and the future of global health is shaped.
