Centers and Institutes
The Carney Institute promotes the collaborative, theoretical, and experimental study of the brain from the molecular to the behavioral and cognitive level. Faculty address the fundamental issues in brain science, including how we see, learn, remember, interact, communicate, as well as how to repair damaged brains and crack the neural code.
The Center for Digital Health is an incubator for practical research, enabling the development of novel digital health science and tools focused on solving the real needs of patients, providers, and populations. It offers experiential education in ethical, effective digital health development and deployment for the next generation of scientists, clinicians, and entrepreneurs.
The center for the Mechanics of Undersea Science and Engineering (MUSE) enables collaborative research and partnerships to advance the field of undersea mechanics.
Fluids at Brown (formerly known as the Center for Fluid Mechanics, Turbulence and Computation) was founded to promote research in fluid mechanics, the study of turbulent flows and transition phenomena, the use of scientific computation in fluid mechanics research, and topics of related scientific interest.
The Initiative for Sustainable Energy serves as a campus hub for driving technological advances in sustainable energy and preparing the next-generation of leaders in net-zero-carbon energy solutions.
The mission of the Institute for Biology, Engineering and Medicine is to bring together faculty and students from the life sciences and engineering with clinical partners to conduct research, create and test ideas, and translate cutting-edge science into diagnostics, therapies, devices and treatments for patients.
Whether in the classroom through the open curriculum, or through a wide range of co-curricular activities, Brown students have long pursued ambitious solutions to challenging problems. The Nelson Center is the hub for all of this entrepreneurial activity on campus, and it is one of collaboration, critical problem solving, and a commitment to interdisciplinary and creative thinking.
