The Sheffield Biomedical Research Centre is focused on translational neuroscience for chronic neurological disorders.
As the population ages, more people than ever before will be affected by a neurological disease of some kind, but few effective treatments currently exist.
In order to find new treatments, we first need to answer the following questions:
-
Why do certain diseases develop in some people but not in others?
-
Why do people with the same disease often progress (experience worsening symptoms) at different rates from each other?
-
And why do some treatments work in some people but not in others?
