At Columbia University’s Zuckerman Institute, our mission is to decipher the brain. We believe that understanding how the brain works — and gives rise to mind and behavior — is the most urgent and exciting challenge of our time.
Our passionate group of researchers is exploring how the brain develops, performs, endures and recovers to gain critical insights into human health and behavior for the benefit of people and societies everywhere.
Because the brain and mind are central to the human experience — shaping not only our thoughts and feelings, but also our motivations and actions — the potential for discovery is staggering.
