What types of studies are currently under way at the M.I.N.D. Institute?
Our studies fall under three categories: biological, behavioral and intervention. Biological studies are building our understanding of the body such as how the brain works when completing certain tasks and why people respond a certain way to medication. Behavioral studies look at various aspects of behavior such as how sleepiness changes behavior and how children imitate other people’s actions. Intervention studies address different types of treatments such as vitamins, medications and social skills groups.
