How your support makes a difference

All funds raised will go towards helping our researchers solve two of the greatest challenges of modern science:

  • understanding brain function
  • preventing/treating disorders of the brain.

Our scientists work tirelessly towards developing new treatments for disorders that have a devastating impact on people’s lives. These disorders include:

  • dementia
  • motor neurone disease (MND)
  • stroke
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • depression
  • anxiety
  • schizophrenia
All funds raised will help researchers at the Queensland Brain Institute to tackle some of the greatest need areas in health, such as ageing dementia, stroke, autism, depression and anxiety, motor neurone disease, schizophrenia and spinal cord injury. We welcome people to join the team and help us reach our target! If you are unable to participate on the day, you can still support our team by donating.
