Below you can find a partial list of our many collaborative partners at Stanford and other resources related to the neurosciences and brain health:
Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (CASBS)
CASBS @ Stanford brings together deep thinkers from diverse disciplines and communities to advance understanding of the full range of human beliefs, behaviors, interactions, and institutions. A leading incubator of human-centered knowledge, CASBS facilitates collaborations across academia, policy, industry, civil society, and government to collectively design a better future.
Interdisciplinary Neurosciences Graduate Program
The Stanford Neurosciences Interdepartmental Program (IDP) offers interdisciplinary training leading to a Ph.D. in Neuroscience. The primary goal of the program is to train students to become leaders in neuroscience research, education and outreach. Graduates of the program will be innovators, investigators, and teachers whose programs and pursuits are founded on research. The signature feature of the Stanford Neurosciences IDP is the combination of outstanding faculty researchers and exceedingly bright, energetic students in a community that shares a firm and longstanding commitment to understanding the nervous system at all its levels of function.
Stanford Center for Affective Science
This center catalyzes interdisciplinary interaction among Stanford faculty and students interested in affective science, broadly defined as the study of motivation and emotion. Our affiliates include the Stanford Institute for Research in the Social Sciences, the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute, and the Stanford Humanities Center.
Stanford Educational Neuroscience Initiative
The Educational Neuroscience Initiative at the Stanford Graduate School of Education is aimed at creating a new form of actionable research that links school-based educational innovation with advances in the neuroscience of emerging math and reading.We partner with local schools to bring unique neuroscience learning opportunities to students, and explore how changes in the brain's neural circuitry support emerging skills that are foundational to education, and how school experiences help to change, shape and tune brain circuitry that are critical to the emergence of the educated mind.
Stanford Neuroscience Health Center
The Stanford Neuroscience Health Center brings together world-class specialists in neurology, neurosurgery, and neurointerventional radiology. Using the most advanced treatments, diagnostics and imaging technologies, we address your complex and unique needs all within the comfort and convenience of a single location. Working collaboratively with Stanford Children’s Health pediatric neurosurgery unit, we provide a seamless patient care experience for adolescent patients as they transition to adult care.
