    Default job background
    Description

    A little about us:


    The Lieber Institute for Brain Development (LIBD) was established in 2010 to plot a new course in biomedical research that would change the lives of individuals affected with developmental brain disorders.

    We are one of the only research institutions in the world focused specifically on understanding how genes and the environment influence the way our brains develop that lead to conditions such as schizophrenia, autism, bipolar disorder and related developmental brain disorders.

    Through our cutting-edge research, answers are emerging and being translated into a robust pipeline of new drugs in development.

    And, by focusing on genes and their dynamic interplay with the environment, we are getting even closer to the "holy grail" in medical research, the discovery of strategies for primary prevention.


    We are a group of dedicated, multidisciplinary and optimistic researchers, working at the cutting edge of science, utilizing state-of-the-art tools to unlock the mystery of the brain and transform the way we approach the development of new treatments, and ultimately cures.
