Scientific discovery and dissemination are at the heart of everything we do.
Right to
its very core, the Centre for Brain Research thrives
on communication. Senior
Principal Investigators from the basic neurosciences and clinical specialities meet
regularly to discuss research outcomes and direction. The challenges and discoveries
in neurological diseases are shared with frontline care workers from community NGOs.
This ethos of collective facilities, active intermixing and collaboration promotes
a more effective research environment.
Our track record for educational promotion and
outreach has already been established through the popular annual
Brain Awareness Week and the New Zealand Brain
Bee Challenge. The CeleBRation Choir
is a welcome addition to the CBR's events and activities, along with the
Research Volunteer Register to encourage participation in research. The CBR
now also maintains an online news site along with Facebook and Twitter.
The Centre's activities are managed by our Communications
and Liaison Manager, Laura Fogg.
