Neuroscience

Investments in this area draw upon a broad array of Yale’s strengths and facilitate new fundamental insights into the function of the mind, the development of the brain, and the causes and cures of neural disease.

This work takes place in many departments, programs, and schools across the university and, by fostering diverse faculty expertise and research foci, expands the frontiers of knowledge, from molecular and cellular neuroscience to organismal cognition and behavior.

Highlighting Progress

Wu Tsai Institute

An ambitious interdisciplinary research endeavor, the institute aims to accelerate breakthroughs in understanding cognition by bringing together psychological, biological, and computational sciences.

Faculty expansion

New faculty affiliated with the Wu Tsai Institute and neuroscience build on Yale’s expertise in these fields.

Stephen and Denise Adams Center for Parkinson’s Disease Research

This new center at Yale New Haven Hospital, part of a new patient-care and research facility currently under construction, will enable Yale faculty members to bring cutting-edge treatments to patients and to make discoveries from the bedside on neurologic disease and the biological underpinnings of Parkinson’s disease.
