Neuroscience Overview

At the AdventHealth Research Institute, we are passionate about helping people with neurological disorders live life to the fullest. That's why we’re dedicated to finding new ways to prevent, treat and ultimately cure neurological disorders that affect millions of people worldwide.

Using the latest in pharmaceutics, medical devices and bedside techniques to collect and analyze data, we can understand how neurologic conditions affect the brain, leading to better preventive and treatment options. Our multidisciplinary team of neuroscience physicians, nurses and researchers are leading the way with research studies in a wide range of modalities, including physician-initiated trials. Join our mission to create a brighter future for brain health.
