Brain-Body Research Institute

Brain-Body Research Institute Our mission is to engage in advanced research and education on communication between the nervous and immune systems.

Our ultimate goal is to achieve translation of our research findings into new treatments for neurological disorders. Research Overview
The founding scientific team, pioneers in the field of neuroimmunology, has over the last 30 years made major discoveries in the role of an inflammatory protein in brain functioning. In the clinical setting, they have observed that blocking this protein has profoun

d effects on many pathologies, demonstrating a primary mechanism that can be targeted for treatment of pathologies including:

Neuropathic Pain
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
Stroke
Alzheimer’s
Huntington’s
Cerebral Palsy
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS)

In addition to observations in the clinical setting, this scientific team has also published pre-clinical research defining this primary mechanism as a therapeutic target in these additional pathologies:

Diabetic Neuropathy
Concussion
Chronic Pain
Depression

These discoveries in neuroimmunology amount to a paradigm shift in understanding of brain dysfunction. The public will only benefit from these discoveries when they are translated into effective treatments and prevention methods for the above dysfunctions. This is what we are committed to achieve at the Brain-Body Research Institute.
