NRU

NRU is a major training site for pre- and postgraduate students and disseminates its scientific output widely. Most of NRU's budget is covered by external funding... The Neurobiology Research Unit (NRU) at Copenhagen University Hospital Rigshospitalet in Denmark conducts translational neuroscience research with the aim to promote preventive, diagnostic, and therapeutic advances. We make use of neuropsychological and behavioral assessments combined with MRI, PET, SPECT and EEG in humans to investigate basic neurobiological mechanisms in the healthy brain and brain disorders, as well as neuropharmacological effects on the brain. Advanced image processing and statistical methods are applied to our data. We also use animal and cell models to bring pre-clinical discoveries into healthy volunteers and patients as early as possible.
