Paris Brain Institute

Created in 2010, Paris Brain Institute is a scientific and medical research center dedicated to studying the brain and discovering new treatments for diseases affecting the nervous system. 

Its innovative model brings together patients, doctors, researchers and entrepreneurs with a common goal: transforming fundamental discoveries into therapeutic solutions through a translational and interdisciplinary approach. 

Located in Paris at the very heart of Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital – the largest neurology center in Europe – Paris Brain Institute brings together more than 900 international experts in 27 research teams, 11 cutting-edge core facilities, a clinical research center, a training organization, a living lab and a business incubator. 

It is built around a partnership between a public joint research unit (Sorbonne University, the Inserm and the CNRS) and a private foundation with recognized charitable status, Paris Brain Institute Foundation, working with the AP-HP Paris Public Hospital Network.
