Since 2018, members of the CBRU have secured public funding from NIH exceeding $15 million

  • (NIMH-R01-MH118203; BICCN-U01-MH121260; NIA-R01-AG060931; NIA-R56-AG071023; NIMH-R56-MH122819).
Research members of the CBRU are involved with a multi-institution proposal led by the Allen Brain Institute (UM1-MH130981), where the CBRU is contributing a substantial number of brain tissues to Phase 2 of the NIH BRAIN Initiative, entitled From Cells to Circuits, Toward Cures.
