Collaborations

Bright Minds engages with the broader scientific community to amplify our understanding of the biology and mechanism of action of mental and neurological disorders.

National Institutes of Health

Washington DC

 

Bright Minds is partnered with the NIH in two separate programs. One evaluating our compounds for the treatment of epilepsy. The other, assessing treatment for non-opioid pain management.

 

Acceptance into both programs is a strong validation for Bright Minds’ approach and existing data. This collaboration is an example of Bright Minds non-dilutive approach as associated costs are fully covered by the NIH.
