At the Howard Florey Institute - Australia's leading brain research organisation - internationally renowned scientists work together with talented young researchers to make discoveries about the brain. Our scientists undertake clinical and applied research that can be developed into treatments to combat brain disorders, and into new medical practices. Their discoveries will improve the lives of those directly, and indirectly, affected by brain and mind disorders in Australia, and around the world.

Some of our key research areas are: Epilepsy, Stroke, Parkinson's disease, Dementia, Multiple sclerosis, Huntington's disease, Muscular dystrophy, Motor neuron disease, Addiction, Depression, Schizophrenia, Autism and Brain injury.
