Neuroscience
Advancing Neuroscience Research at Michigan Medicine
Unlocking the complexities of the brain and reducing the impact of brain-related illnesses.
The brain regulates the body’s organ systems and helps us interact with the world. Understanding how the brain coordinates signals from inside and outside of the body and drives our health and behavior is the focus of Michigan Medicine’s world-renowned neuroscientists.
Our researchers are quickly advancing knowledge within the field, from understanding diseases of the brain, such as cancer, epilepsy and depression arise to unraveling the brain’s immense complexity.
