Michigan Neuroscience Institute
Leveraging U-M's science and engineering advances to solve the brain's mysteries, advance human health, and address society's challenges.
The brain is the most complex organ in the human body. Understanding its complexities - both normally and in disease - requires teams of scientists employing a broad range of research methods. The Michigan Neuroscience Institute (MNI) connects research investigators from across the University of Michigan campus to probe the mysteries of the brain on a cellular, molecular and behavioral level.
