About Us:

One of the major mandates of NBRC is to network the existing neuroscience groups/institutions in the country and promote multidisciplinary research in neuroscience. The networking of the existing neuroscience centres with NBRC is aimed to prevent unnecessary duplication of the work and facilities already existing. At the same time it would facilitate sharing of expertise and available infrastructure for mutual benefit. It would help to bring together researchers from varying backgrounds to pursue common objectives that may be beyond the capacity of an individual investigator, group or institution. This is important since the major achievements in neuroscience will have to be made through a multidisciplinary approach bringing together scientists working in different disciplines into the main stream of neuroscience and brain research activity

Human Resource Development

NBRC is mandated to play a major role in the human resource development in neuroscience. For this purpose in addition to the in-house academic programmes, NBRC has already promoted the initiation of a M.Sc. course in neuroscience at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai. Other such programmes to be established with NBRC support are being negotiated. NBRC has established several Post-doctoral fellowships in different centres in the country. In addition NBRC coordinates and sponsors several intensive hands-on workshops in the different areas of neuroscience. These activities are being initiated to develop adequate human resources in brain research.
