Focusing science
on the greatest impact
for people.
Current research, treatment, and care for bipolar disorder lacks scientific precision of the disorder and its diversity. We aim to change that.
Four Interconnected Programs, Zero Silos
Our mission is to accelerate scientific understanding of bipolar disorder and advance clinical care through cross-disciplinary collaboration, data sharing, and real-time learning.
