Neuronetwork For Emerging Therapies
Where scientists create cures.
Dr. Eid, Dr. Feldman, and Dr. Kim in the lab action

Our goal is to accelerate scientific discovery to alleviate suffering in neurological diseases. 

Our work in recent years highlights that we will not reach this goal alone. Every day, we work with a passionate, innovative, diverse, multidisciplinary team of researchers and physician-scientists at the forefront of biomedical research. 

We draw upon our expertise and our innovative collaborations, both within the University of Michigan and worldwide, to accelerate the pace of scientific discovery and support emerging therapies for neurological diseases.
