The Brain, Behavior and the Environment program at FIU’s Robert Stempel College of Public Health & Social Work was selected as one of the premier programs featured in the Society of Toxicology’s leadership film series. The film series profiles academic, government and industry partners working at the forefront of creating a healthier and safer world by advancing science and increasing the impact of toxicology.
The Brain, Behavior and the Environment program, focuses on factors that affect brain health. The transdisciplinary initiative unites the dynamic and diverse neuroscience community at our university toward three goals: to create and empower research programs focused on environmental causes of neurological disease; to devise strategies and develop therapies for neurological disorders using novel neuroscience and engineering tools as well as pharmacological approaches; and to establish a rich educational resource in South Florida to educate students, faculty, clinicians, the public and health officials on the role that environmental factors play on neurological disease.
