The M.I.N.D. Institute

The M.I.N.D. Institute is an international, multidisciplinary research organization, committed to excellence, collaboration and hope, striving to understand the causes and develop better treatments and ultimately cures for neurodevelopmental disorders. Standing shoulder to shoulder, families, scientists, physicians, educators, and administrators are working together to unlock the mysteries of the mind.

Neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism, fragile X syndrome and learning disorders are increasingly recognized. It is likely that you know an individual with one of these disorders. At the M.I.N.D. Institute, the “race is on” to identify the causes and develop better treatments, interventions, and preventions for the neurodevelopmental disorders that affect children and families around the world.

While much work needs to be done, UC Davis M.I.N.D. Institute is committed to using an integrated, comprehensive research approach to understanding the causes and finding cures for these neurodevelopmental disorders.
