What Is Neuroscience?
Neurological diseases are conditions that affect the central (CNS) and peripheral nervous system (PNS). In other words, the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, which manage bodily, cognitive, behavioral, and emotional activities, may be impaired, causing a range of symptoms. There is a wide range of neurological disorders, such as dementias (e.g., Alzheimer’s disease), seizures (e.g., epilepsy), migraine, sleep disorders, anxiety and depressive disorders, muscle weakness, pain, and more. Such mental disorders affect 1 in 8 people worldwide (1).
Our research and development team aims to focus on the underlying mechanisms of neurological disorders as per your vision. As neurology development can be a demanding therapy area due to a distressed and stigmatized patient population (1), the highly complex human brain, and the high failure rate in late-stage trials (2), this requires a flexible and agile specialty laboratory partner who can adjust as the protocol does, ensuring safety and efficacy endpoints are captured appropriately and enabling studies to move forward with the right data at the right time. Cerba Research can provide a wide range of integrated specialty and safety testing to your existing central laboratory neuroscience processes. Contact us to find out.
