Neuroscience

We’re advancing research to tackle the complexities of some of the most devastating nervous system disorders in an effort to develop medicines that may treat, slow progression or prevent these diseases.

 

Neuroscience discovery and development

Neuroscience is evolving. New powerful imaging technologies and insights from human genetics and cell biology are helping us better understand disease-related changes in the brain and the nervous system. These rapidly emerging insights are enabling the development of new approaches to treating devastating diseases of the nervous system.

Our focus on research and treatments for neurological disorders

Our scientists are working to discover and develop novel therapeutics for a host of diseases involving the nervous system, which continue to represent one of the greatest therapeutic challenges of our time.

Exploring potential disease-modifying approaches

Our research is focused on discovering and developing novel therapeutics for a host of nervous system disorders. We’re pursuing a variety of new approaches as we strive to understand the biology behind brain health, neurodegeneration and the nervous system. We’re evaluating targets that have been implicated in many nervous system disorders and investing in new research on important biological functions including neuroimmunology, lysosomal function and protein homeostasis.

Researching symptom control

Our symptomatic research is focused on alleviating symptoms associated with nervous system disorders, including pain, excessive sleepiness and psychosis. By studying both disease modification and symptomatic relief, we hope to develop therapies with the potential to improve quality of life.
