Center for Excellence in the Neurosciences
Neurological diseases represent enormous health, economic and social burdens to the United States as well as the rest of the world. Chronic pain, for example, is estimated to affect over 50% of the U.S. population and the direct and indirect economic impact is estimated to be over $100 billion annually.
Mission
The mission of the CEN is to foster creativity and collaboration among people who have a passion for understanding the complexities of the nervous system and applying this knowledge to improve human health, productivity, and quality of life.
