Launched in 2010, the ����ԭ�� and Premier Health Neuroscience Institute represents a groundbreaking collaboration that leverages some of the Dayton region’s greatest strengths to address many of its most crucial needs. Designated as a University System of Ohio Center of Excellence, this public-private partnership unites the region’s most advanced biomedical research institution with the clinical resources of its leading hospital system. Dayton Children’s Hospital joined the institute as an affiliate in July 2014.

The institute’s nationally and internationally recognized scientists and clinicians strive to make new discoveries, which will expand our understanding of:

• Stroke
• Epilepsy
• Memory disorders
• Movement disorders occurring in Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, among others
• Neuropathies that arise from complications of diabetes, chemotherapy or nerve injury

Funding for this event is provided by the ����ԭ�� Office of the Vice President for Research and Graduate Studies and the Miami Valley Hospital Medical Staff Continuing Medical Education Fund.
