Let’s tackle some of the most urgent brain health challenges facing Australians today.
Through world-leading expertise and cutting-edge research, NeuRA is translating discoveries made in the lab into real therapies and preventions for dementia, and other brain health challenges.
Your support fuels Australian scientists working at the forefront of dementia, mental health and brain health research.
Brain health challenges are tough but research powers solutions.
NeuRA’s researchers have been working to tackle brain health challenges for over 30 years.
Some recent advancements include:
Brain microbiome research
Australia-first research into the existence of a brain microbiome, with potential ramifications for the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases like dementia.
Immune system and brain health
Establishing a link between the immune system and brain health in people with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, potentially leading to personalised, more effective treatments.
Parkinson’s disease discoveries
Identified changes in blood vessels in the brain for people with Parkinson’s disease, giving hope of new treatment options for what is the second most common neurological disease in Australia.
Your donation ensures the diseases of today will no longer be the diseases of tomorrow
