After more than five decades of supporting brain research, the Brain Research Foundation and its mission continue to adapt and grow to fund the most effective research within the ever-advancing fields of science. When the Foundation began in 1953, we were supporting “brain research.” Since then our areas of support, our fundraising, and our vision have all expanded.
We believe a broad scope of research is the best way to reach our goal—a thorough understanding of how the human brain functions and how the nervous system develops throughout life.
