The University of Maryland – Medicine Institute for Neuroscience Discovery (UM-MIND) is a multidisciplinary, multi-departmental neuroscience research institute at the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) in Baltimore, Maryland.
We provide a cohesive structure uniting the strong community of esteemed neuroscientists at UMSOM, who span many departments, institutes, centers, and programs and represent over $100 million in research funding dedicated to studies of the brain on our campus. All neuroscientists on campus are “part” of UM-MIND and thus welcomed to join in for all events and benefit from all the resources we provide. Through a dedicated focus on our three pillars – Neurodevelopment & Neuropsychiatric Disorders, Neurotrauma & Brain Injury, and Aging & Neurodegeneration – UM-MIND will work to facilitate interaction between basic and clinical scientists and accelerate the discovery and translation of novel therapies for brain disorders.
