Neuroscience Resources

• National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)
  NINDS, part of NIH, offers information on dozens of neuroscience-related conditions, from ADHD to stroke; news on new findings from funded research; and a searchable index of NINDS-supported clinical trials.
• NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research
  The NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research website is a portal to different NIH institutes and research on neuroscience. It includes links to all the NIH components that study neuroscience-related topics and health conditions, as well as research-focused information and resources.
• Society for Neuroscience 
  The Society for Neuroscience is a membership organization of scientists and physicians who study neurosciences. Find resources for students and educators and general information on the page About Neuroscience. 
  • BrainFacts.org 
    BrainFacts.org aims to provide consumer-friendly information about neuroscience to the public. It is an initiative of the Society for Neuroscience and other partners.
• The Dana Foundation 
  The Dana Foundation supports brain research through grants, publications, and educational programs. It also publishes information about topics of public interest, such as painkillers and addiction, aging, and autism.
  • The Dana Foundation’s Brain Awareness Week 
    Brain Awareness Week is a global campaign to increase public awareness of the progress and benefits of brain research.
  • Brain Connections 
    This publication lists more than 240 organizations in the United States that provide information, referrals, and other guidance in connection with brain-related disorders. Listings provide mailing addresses, toll-free numbers, email addresses, and clickable website addresses and identify the primary services each organization provides.

• Through its intramural and extramural organizational units, NICHD supports and conducts a wide range of neuroscience research. The institute also takes part in several NIH-wide activities related to neuroscience and provides support for many neuroscience-related tools for researchers.

• National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research (NCMRR)
  Through basic, translational, and clinical research, NCMRR fosters development of scientific knowledge needed to enhance the health, productivity, independence, and quality of life of people with physical disabilities. NCMRR also coordinates rehabilitation research and activities across NIH, including leading the 2021 revision of the NIH Research Plan on Rehabilitation (PDF 1.51 MB).
• The NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research is a portal to different NIH institutes and research on neuroscience. It includes links to all the NIH components that study neuroscience-related topics, as well as research-focused information and resources.
• Society for Neuroscience 
  The Society offers individual awards and grants  as well as information on funding  for neuroscientists at different levels of their careers.
• The Neuroimaging Informatics Tools and Resources Clearinghouse (NITRC) 
  NITRC now offers a cloud-based computing environment to help researchers manage and analyze large volumes of brain imaging data.
• The Neuroscience Information Framework (NIF) 
  The NIF is a dynamic inventory of Web-based neuroscience resources: data, materials, and tools accessible via any computer connected to the Internet. An initiative of the NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research, NIF advances neuroscience research by enabling discovery and access to public research data and tools worldwide through an open-source, networked environment.
