Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Primary sources Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox organization The Brain & Behavior Research Foundation (BBRF) is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that funds mental health research. It was originally called the National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia & Depression, or NARSAD. It received its nonprofit ruling in 1981.[1][2]
Mission and work
BBRF states that it is "committed to alleviating the suffering caused by mental illness by awarding grants that will lead to advances and breakthroughs in scientific research."[3] The Foundation focuses its research grants in the following areas: addiction, ADHD, anxiety, autism, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, depression, eating disorders, OCD, PTSD, and schizophrenia. Grant applications (943 in 2019), are assessed by the BBRF Scientific Council. This is a group of 187 prominent mental health researchers, led by Herbert Pardes, M.D., who review each grant application and select those deemed most likely to lead to breakthroughs. A total of 150 Young Investigator grants were made in 2022.[4]
Research funding awarded
From its inception in 1987 through calendar year 2022, BBRF has awarded over $440 million[3] to fund more than 6,400 grants to more than 5,300 scientists around the world.[5] The Foundation states that 100% of every dollar donated for research goes towards research. BBRF is able to achieve this thanks to the support of two family foundations that fully cover its operating expenses.[6]
Awards
BBRF has two main prizes: the Klerman and Freedman Prizes, which are to recognize exceptional clinical or basic research into mental illness. They are awarded annually.[7]Шаблон:Scholia
