Brain Research Foundation (BRF) is leading the future of brain research. Since 1953, BRF has served as a nonprofit organization dedicated to making a dramatic difference in the lives of children, adolescents and adults devastated by neurological disorders.
BRF believes a broad scope of research is the best way to reach its goal – a thorough understanding of how the human brain functions and how the nervous system develops throughout life. Only with this knowledge will we be able to unravel the mysteries of the brain and discover new treatments and cures for neurological disorders that affect more than 50 million Americans, such as Alzheimer’s, autism, depression, Parkinson’s and schizophrenia.
