About the Institute
Here at the Prince of Wales Medical Research Institute, our
work is directed to understanding the integrative actions
of the brain and nervous system in health and disease.
The brain and spinal cord control and coordinate everything
that we think, speak, feel and do. Damage or disease of the
brain produces devastating results. It can leave you unable
to move, unable to speak, unable to control even your basic
bodily functions. It may leave you with debilitating chronic
pain.
Our scientists at the Prince of Wales Medical Research Institute
are dedicated to understanding every aspect of the nervous
system. We also focus on translating our research into clinical
practice to help diagnose and prevent disease and ultimately
to look for curative therapies.
Our research covers everything from cells, genes and molecules
through to how the elderly walk, and from the tiniest blood
vessel to the control of breathing.
