An innovative partnership to advance research & enhance patient care

Designated as an Ohio Center of Excellence, the Wright State University & Premier Health Partners Neuroscience Institute represents a groundbreaking public-private partnership that unites the Dayton region’s most advanced biomedical research institution with the clinical resources of its largest hospital system.

Together, the neuroscientists of the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine and the clinical neurologists of Premier Health Partners will:

• Collaborate to conduct cutting-edge grant-funded research and clinical trials
• Enhance care quality and access in an area of critical need for a growing patient population
• Strengthen the economy and reputation of the region by earning international recognition as a center of excellence in neuroscience

Fostering collaboration

A core part of the institute’s mission is to foster close collaboration among scientists and clinicians in order to accelerate translational research and rapidly transform new discoveries in basic sciences into breakthroughs in patient care.

A unique approach to neuroscience research

• Built on a strong foundation of nationally recognized researchers, rather than clinicians conducting research
• Capitalizes on the strengths of our researchers, who will work directly with clinicians to conduct grant-funded research and clinical trials
• Leverages strategic hiring of clinicians with same research interests as WSU researchers to form a cooperative team to target clinically relevant science and bring unique clinical insights into the cutting-edge research done here
